[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to
This bill aims to protect workers' rights to join and participate in trade unions without fear of being sacked. It would make it easier for workers to prove they were unfairly dismissed because of union activities and give them stronger legal remedies if this happens.
Presented by Barry Gardiner.
