General Election 2015The campaigns for this year’s general election have officially begun, but what will the outcome mean for HR?

Labour are trying to connect with the “ordinary” people, focusing on employment issues and promising legislation to increase vocational education and apprenticeships.

Both parties have promised the end of  zero hours contracts, which will have a huge impact on employment throughout the country.
