From April this year, workers across the UK are getting proper statutory sick pay from their first day of absence, rather than going days without being paid. This is a great change and all thanks to the Labour government’s Employment Rights Act.

We’re a week away from the first anniversary of this Labour government. I’m going to be counting down my highlights from the last year every day, starting with workers’ rights.

"I worked all my life, and now I can't afford to live." Statutory sick pay is dangerously low. People with debilitating illnesses are often forced to keep working. With the Employment Rights Bill back in the commons this week, campaigners are demanding change.

33 Tory hereditary peers voted against the Employment Rights Bill last week. We lost the vote by 24. That could mean some of the lowest earners will not get statutory sick pay this April. We must pass this Bill without delay.

I ran for election on the Labour manifesto, that promised to make work pay & improve working conditions. In our first 100 days we introduced an Employment Rights Bill. 👉 Ending exploitative zero-hours contracts 👉 Strengthening Statutory Sick Pay 👉 Ending fire and rehire These are just a few of the changes we’re making to make people in Plymouth better off.

The recent amendment by the GOV.UK to the Employment Rights Bill, that allows councils in debt to #FireAndRehire their workers shows what is really going on here. Council workers are being lined up to pay the price for years of austerity. #Birmingham

Mockler: What this does is disincentivize people from going to the courthouse and following the proper procedures. And part of the reason they're being so aggressive is because of this arbitrary quota set by Stephen Miller 3000 a day, meaning people are going to courthouses, being detained, being deported—workers, people who are contributing to this country. So do you think it's okay when somebody who is following the proper processes is then kind of like hoodwinked?

The British people work hard every day to better their lives and pay into a system that delivers for them. Illegal migrant workers damage the labour market. Immigration Enforcement have increased illegal working arrests by 51%, protecting UK workers from being undercut.

The law that could see unemployment skyrocket is days away from being nodded through by Labour MPs. This is our last chance. The trade union inspired Employment Rights Bill will kill jobs and take us back to the 1970s. Starmer must drop it now.
