Wales is set to introduce a new draft law that will allow employers to enter into occupation contracts with employees. The new law, which is expected to come into effect in 2021, will provide greater protection for employees in Wales and ensure that they are treated fairly and receive the wages they are entitled to.

Under the new law, employers will be required to enter into occupation contracts with their employees. These contracts will outline the terms of employment, including the job title, duties, pay, hours of work, and any other conditions of employment. The contracts will also specify the rights and obligations of both the employer and employee.

The new law will also provide greater protection for employees in Wales. For example, employers will be prohibited from making deductions from wages without the employee’s consent. Employers will also be required to provide written notice of any changes to the terms of employment and must provide a written statement of the employee’s rights and obligations.

The new law will also ensure that employees receive the wages they are entitled to. Employers must pay employees at least the National Minimum Wage or the Living Wage, whichever is higher. The law also requires employers to pay employees for any overtime worked.

The new law is an important step forward for employees in Wales. It will ensure that they are treated fairly and receive the wages they are entitled to. It will also provide greater protection for employees and ensure that their rights are respected.
