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.
