New draft regulations to prevent discrimination against applicants who speak up Staff who speak up about patient safety issues and seek new jobs in the NHS will be protected under new draft regulations proposed by the government.
The new regulations seek to prohibit an employer from treating an applicant less favourably than another based on their previous history of raising concerns. Under existing legislation, ‘workers’ are protected against detrimental treatment, while the new amendments to the Employment Rights Act 1996 will extend this to include applicants. NHS Employers
