Employment Relations Act 2004

The Employment Relations Act 2004 puts the conclusions of the Government's review of the Employment Relations Act 1999 into legislation.

It aims to provide a set of standards for fresh, modern, constructive trade unions, which will help them work more co-operatively and efficiently with businesses. It also seeks to modernise trade unions, and focuses on racism and employer intimidation – factors which the Government recognises as flaws in current trade unions.

Protection has also been enhanced for employees suffering unfair dismissal.
