Stronger rights, better results: Managers’ attitudes to workers’ rights
Article
Labour’s manifesto pledged to strengthen employees’ protections at work.

The polling reveals strong support for the government’s plans amongst those making decisions within businesses and frequently engaging with workers. Most managers support the idea of strengthening the rights of ordinary workers in principle and welcome specific policies announced by the government.
