The UK government has announced plans to repeal the Strikes (Minimum Service Levels) Act 2023, a controversial law that mandated minimum service levels during strikes in essential sectors like health and transport. This decision follows Labour's victory, which aims to reset industrial relations by promoting fair negotiations between workers and employers, as stated by Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner. The new Employment Rights Bill will be introduced within the first 100 days of the administration and is designed to enhance the rights of workers to negotiate without the constraints imposed by the previous legislation. Critics of the minimum service levels law, including unions, argued that it infringed upon workers' rights and failed to resolve ongoing strike actions. The Labour government is also engaging with regional mayors and government departments to discuss the implementation of these changes, reflecting a broader strategy to improve labor relations in the UK. This initiative comes amid ongoing negotiations for better wages and conditions among public sector workers, who have been active in striking for their rights.
