Labour need to deliver their original idea to abolish the house of Lords. They have no place in 2025
Honestly, 6 months is fair enough. Thats about the normal length for a probation period anyway.
I can see why full employment rights on day 1 could make businesses very hesitant to hire new people.
6 months is good. Interviews aren’t flawless you need to be able to get rid of people.
I disagree with this. If someone meets your criteria for being offered the job, then you shouldn’t have the opportunity to fire them without cause or a redundancy settlement.
I worked, in my youth, for some sketchy businesses that didn’t follow employment law for paid holidays. Asking questions about that got me sacked.
The tribunal didn’t work out.
I support anything that results in employers being afraid enough of worker’s rights that they’re fully compliant with employment law and have clear policies and procedures in place.
Giving them full rights on day one does not change anything.Either they can or cannot do the job to the standard required.
I could have done with this protection a year ago. My partner was having an operation on her leg and I needed to work from home every day to do the school run amongst other things. I mentioned this to my employer and requested an amendment to my contract. A week later I was suddenly fired for poor performance. I’d been there less than two years so legally could do nothing about it.
6 months certainly makes sense. I’d even be happy with it going back to 1 year. 2 years is a lifetime in a job these days.
Seems reasonable. Needed reducing from two years, but full protection from day one is kind of insane because it means employers can’t bin people who are clearly not capable of the role after they’ve blagged an interview.
6 months seems like a good balance.
2 years is asking for abuse. Day 1 is asking for low levels of job openings.
Ah would have been nice to have had sick pay the other month….Instead I got sweet fuck all. Id have thought they might have prioritised workers rights before they started the pip mess and forcing disabled people into work when they can’t even cover the disabled people that are in work…
Most businesses have a 3 month probation period unless you’re doing an apprenticeship or similar.
Why not make it 3 months.
The answer is that it benefits businesses for it to be so.
The worker always comes last even though it’s the workers that make all the money.
The whole system is upside down.
As someone working in tech who’s witnessed first hand poor hires and understand the need for businesses to have the flexibility if it’s not a right fit but the existing 2 years was to long and was abused by many employers so feel 6 months is a great level
