Trade Boards Act 1918

The Trade Boards Act 1918 (8 & 9 Geo. 5. c. 32) was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that heavily shaped the post-World War I system of UK labour law, particularly regarding collective bargaining and the establishment of minimum wages. It was the result of the second of five Whitley Committee reports.

The 1918 extended the piecemeal system for tackling sweated labour begun under the Trade Boards Act 1909 . The second reading took place on 17 June 1918. It received royal assent on 8 August 1918.
