flag UK watchdog warns Labour's new bill could let pubs ban customer discussions to avoid harassment.

flag The UK's Equality and Human Rights Commission warns that Labour's proposed Employment Rights Bill could lead to pubs banning controversial discussions among customers to avoid workplace harassment. flag The bill requires employers to prevent harassment by third parties, including in places like pubs and offices. flag This could restrict freedom of expression, as employers may struggle to determine if overheard conversations count as harassment. flag The EHRC calls for further analysis, noting the complexity of defining philosophical or religious beliefs under the law. flag Hospitality trade groups support these concerns, urging the government to reconsider.
