Planning for changing legislation in pay and reward

About this event

A deep dive into the pay and reward related changes that Keir Starmer’s labour government have committed to introduce.

We will be joined by Charles Cotton, Senior Advisor for Reward and Performance at the CIPD, to explore the manifesto commitments around SSP and NMW, the pensions review, and expansion of pay gap reporting to race and disability. We’ll look at what the government have committed to, how these proposals will progress through the lawmaking process, and what HR and Payroll teams should be doing now to prepare.
