    Boris Johnson considers post-Brexit changes to rules on 48-hour working week

    Boris Johnson is considering a post-Brexit overhaul of labour laws to free businesses from regulations originally imposed by the EU. The 48-hour working week is one of the regulations being targeted by the Government, it was reported on Thursday night, in a move that is likely to meet with resistance from trade unions. The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), has asked business leaders for their views on the ideas, which are understood to be at an early stage. Mr Johnson recently said there would be “big changes” to regulation this year but that the UK would not “regress” on workers’ rights and would not “send children up chimneys”. But ministers believe the current laws, imported from EU law as part of the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement, can be tweaked to benefit both businesses and workers. One possibility is to change rules around the 48-hour week, also known as the working time directive, which currently includes paid overtime. Prior to the pandemic employees in the UK averaged around 32 hours of work per week, dropping down to just 25.8 hours during the summer as employers furloughed many of their workers, according to figures from the ONS.
