FCSA has submitted its response to the Labour Market Enforcement (LME) Strategy 2025-26 consultation, calling for smarter, data-driven enforcement and clearer definitions to tackle non-compliance effectively. Chris Bryce, FCSA Chief Executive, said: “Enforcement must be proportionate and well-targeted. Too often, compliant businesses bear the brunt of poorly implemented policies, while bad actors slip through the cracks.” In our response, we highlight the need for: 🔸 Smarter, targeted enforcement to identify and penalise bad actors. 🔸 Clear definitions of “inherently temporary workers” and umbrella companies. 🔸 Collaborative partnerships between regulators and industry bodies. 🔸 Streamlined regulation to reduce unnecessary burdens on businesses.
