Recommendation 29

Paragraph: 160
Careful review needed for employment regulations if Retained EU Law Bill receives Royal Assent
Conclusion
If the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill receives Royal Assent, a substantial body of regulations contained within EU retained law and covering employment standards and rights will cease to apply in the UK unless specifically preserved in some form. Great care will need to be taken in reviewing these regulations and determining how they should each be treated, to ensure that there is clarity and consistency in UK labour law.
