What are the employment laws in the UK?

Answer

UK employment is primarily governed by the Employment Rights Act 1996, along with various other pieces of legislation that cover rights and responsibilities for employers and employees, including wages, leave, termination, and workplace conditions. The National Minimum Wage Act 1998 and the Working Time Regulations 1998 set out minimum pay and working hours. Additionally, Employment Tribunals and the Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS) play crucial roles in oversight and dispute resolution. Regular consultations with employment law professionals ensure understanding and compliance.
