From today, women effectively work for free for the rest of the year. Why? Because the gender pay gap remains at 10.9% ⚖️

We're calling on the Chancellor to again significantly increase minimum wage rates in next week’s Budget, to help close the gender pay gap 💷

It’s great to see Labour holding firm against opposition Peers’ attempts to water down the landmark Employment Rights Bill.

Our general secretary @joannegsusdaw.bsky.social has written to Labour MPs thanking them for their continued support ⬇️

As the Employment Rights Bill returns to the Lords, we're once again calling on Tory and Lib Dem peers to drop their proposed amendments and allow the bill to be delivered in full ✅

This is the biggest upgrade to workers' rights in a generation - we urge peers to stand with working people ✊
