The principal focus of our proposals in the Manifesto for Labour Law is to deliver decent standards at work via collective bargaining. An important role nonetheless remains for the law in setting minimum standards on wages, working time, equality, health and safety, dismissal and so on. A large body of evidence indicates that the system at present is failing to deliver the rights it ostensibly guarantees. Although fees for bringing employment tribunal (ET) claims have, for the moment, been abolished in the wake of the UNISON judgment of the Supreme Court,54 much more needs to be done to ensure that legal standards are not mere statements of legal theory but are realised in practice for all workers – and that employers who abuse workers’ rights do not gain an advantage over those who respect them.

The widened definition of both ‘worker’ and ‘employer’ in chapter six on the employment relationship and the broadened spread of obligations in relation to equality at work and health and safety at work in those chapters will undoubtedly do much to ensure that decent labour standards apply to workers and employers in the UK. The re-establishment of sectoral collective bargaining advocated for in chapters three and four will impose minimum agreed terms and conditions across whole industries. But these measures may not capture all whose work contributes to the production of UK goods and services, particularly where the employer has arranged for the work to be done overseas.

The labour law of the UK and of other Member States is, and will become, more truly European than appears from the formal imprint of EC labour law. It is European rather by reflecting the cumulative experience of national labour laws, filtered through the prism of the EC institutions and refined in the crucible of the developing European polity. The tendency towards convergence of UK labour law with the labour laws of other Member States of the EC is driven in the main by the institutional pressures of EC membership, and, to a lesser extent, is the consequence of the workings of the international economy and, though less significant, a single European labour market. The dynamic of this convergence process is complex and its results are far from complete.

The new economic governance arrangements with sectoral collective bargaining at their core is the proposed centre-piece of labour law reform. But although this will impose obligations on all employers, it does not exhaust what is necessary to achieve a measure of workplace democracy. In this, it is important that the trade union voice extends horizontally across sectors, but also vertically within firms, from the shop-floor and the workplace to the boardroom and the company meeting. To this end, we deal here with:
