The Protection Against Detriment (Industrial Action) Regulations 2026 establish legal safeguards that specify which detriments workers cannot face when participating in industrial action, operating under powers granted by the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992.

The rules apply to workers across all sectors and establish a legal framework for protecting employment rights during labour disputes.
