MPs have backed a package of workers’ rights reforms described as “a once-in-a-generation chance to reshape the world of work”.

Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner described the Employment Rights Bill as a “landmark” piece of legislation, which she said was “pro growth and pro business and pro worker”.
