The spread of Covid-19 has affected many areas of our lives with major implications for our rights and freedoms.

Furloughed employees, those who are self-employed, and those who must now seek social security benefits face an unprecedented level of uncertainty. Today we discuss the impact of coronavirus on worker's rights in the UK.
