DBT publishes Labour Market Enforcement Strategy for 2025 to 2026
Margaret Beels, Director of Labour Market Enforcement, has published her Labour Market Enforcement Strategy for 2025 to 2026. The Strategy report was submitted to government in May 2025. Her strategy includes the four themes presented in her previous strategies, with a new section focused on the Fair Work Agency (FWA). The FWA, which will be established under the Employment Rights Bill, will bring together the work of the three current labour market enforcement bodies: the HMRC National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage team (HMRC NMW), the Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority (GLAA), and the Employment Agency Standards Inspectorate (EAS).
