EEF Response to the DTI "High Performance Workplaces - Informing and Consulting" Consultation

EEF believes that a number of important changes need to be made to the draft Regulations (contained in the High Performance Workplaces - Informing and Consulting Employees" Consultation Document) to improve their flexibility and certainty. If the Government’s stated objective of increasing the number of high performance workplaces, which EEF fully supports, is to be achieved, it must create a legislative framework that minimises the uncertainty for employers about what this important legislation means and also reduces bureaucratic complexity.
