A Bill to Make provision to ensure that the terms and conditions of employment offered by employers do not put workers who are permanently domiciled in the United Kingdom at a disadvantage through offering any bonus or payment in kind; and for connected purposes.
House of Lords
12 June 2014
The Employment Practices Bill would ensure that the terms and conditions of employment offered to workers in the UK do not disadvantage those who live in the UK permanently because of bonuses or other non-cash payments. It sets out rules to protect UK-domiciled workers from unfavourable treatment in these payments, and it covers related measures.
The bill is being considered in the Lords and is at the Second Reading stage, an early point in its passage through Parliament.
