Angela Rayner plans to extend workers' rights, allowing 9 million more employees to sue their employers for unfair dismissal from their first day on the job. Currently, workers must be employed for at least two years before gaining this right.
Rayner says the reforms will benefit those employed for less than two years, but business leaders have criticised the plans. They argue that the changes are "chaotic" and could discourage companies from hiring new staff.
Alex Phillips speaks with social policy analysy, Dr Rakib Ehsan.
