0602. The Immigrant Workforce

Trump also wants to deport millions of

undocumented immigrants, ostensibly to

pave the way for U.S. citizens to get the low-

wage jobs they hold.

03. New restrictions on hiring

foreign workers.

The Trump administration may mandate in

new ways the hiring of unemployed

American workers before foreign workers.

05. The Opportunity

Trump has an opportunity to engage in the

private sector and impact millions of

disenfranchised workers.

04. The Minimum WageTrump has called for a higher minimum

wage. “A truly bold increase in the minimum

wage would lift pay for the bottom quarter

or more of the workforce.”

01. Pro-employer Practices

To make America the “best place in the

world to get a job,” Trump has pledged to

create 25 million jobs over the next 10 years

06. Restriction on Outsourcing JobFrom the Trump’s election agenda there has

been clear prediction that Trump will

possibly set barriers on outsourcing the low

paid and industrial jobs to the offshore

countries.

POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES ON LABOR AND EMPLOYMENT UNDER TRUMP THAT

MIGHT HAVE STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONS 01. National Fight for $15 CampaignThe Fight for $15 won’t be going away anytime soon. Nineteen major

cities have mayoral campaigns around this issue in 2017.

02. Paid Leave Expansion/Pay Equity LegislationThe paid leave issue began in two to three cities, with the support of

roughly 500,000 activists. Paid leave is now in 30 jurisdictions and is

growing organically. It is becoming a mainstream, non-partisan issue.

03. Restrictive Scheduling Legislation

Predictive or Restrictive Scheduling is somewhat controversial

legislation that is intended to protect workers in retail and

restaurant industries by providing advance notice of

schedules, among other things.

05. State Overtime Legislation

States will revisit overtime rules, especially if

they have Democratic governors and

legislatures.

04. Wage Theft EnforcementThis is usually in the form of a wage board that

ensures that employers comply with the minimum

wage. This is a strategy that was developed by the

labor community to eventually create mini-NLRBs

throughout the country.

HR ISSUES BEYOND THE CONTROL OF TRUMP

IMMIGRATIONPolicy change will restrict low-skilled

workers coming to the UK, impacting

sectors such as agriculture – but it could

result in an increase in the number of

highly-skilled migrant workers.

TRADE

Small impact as some tariffs have fallen

over the past two decades. Increased

negotiating powers will help offset higher

costs for food, drink and car producers.

REGULATIONThe UK is subject to EU regulation. Brexit

may mean less red tape. It could also mean

UK businesses would have to adapt to a

different set of regulations which could be

costly.

FINANCIAL SERVICES AND THE CITYNegative in short term but not a disaster.

City’s competitive advantage not solely

down to single market access and could

open up long-term opportunity.

PROPERTY MARKETEasy to create a doom-case scenario but

scientific, professional and technical

services driving London office creation –

not financial services as often perceived.

PUBLIC SECTORBrexit would benefit the UK, but not to
