Episode notes

The organisations and government bodies responsible for enforcement of labour rights in the UK are fragmented - as they are in many countries around the world.

In this episode, Neill Wilkins (Head of IHRB’s Migrant Workers Programme) delves into UK labour regulation with Joanne Young, CEO of the Association of Labour Providers (ALP).
