Labour considering charging workers for employment tribunal claims, sources say

Labour's potential move to charge workers for employment tribunal claims has sparked outrage among unions, who label it a 'disaster.' This proposal, reminiscent of fees introduced by the previous Conservative government, is seen as a way to appease businesses at the expense of workers' rights. The TUC chief, Paul Nowak, argues that such fees would benefit 'bad bosses' and deter employees from seeking justice. This situation is crucial as it highlights the ongoing struggle between protecting workers' rights and responding to business pressures.
