TUC: EU negotiation guidelines offer golden opportunity to secure workers' rights

Commenting on the EU’s guidelines for the Brexit negotiations, agreed by the leaders of the remaining 27 member states, TUC General Secretary Frances O’Grady said:

"This is a golden opportunity to secure British workers' rights. If the Prime Minister wants to keep her promise to protect rights at work, she should accept a level playing field across Europe.

“The Government needs to put working people at the heart of its Brexit negotiating strategy. That means guaranteeing workplace rights as good as or better than in the rest of Europe, now and in the future.

"Britain must avoid a race to the bottom which would see working people’s rights across Europe trampled on."
