The British Retail Consortium (BRC) warns that rising employment costs and regulatory changes could threaten up to 160,000 part-time retail jobs over three years.
Increased employer NICs and National Living Wage hikes will add £5 billion (~$6.35 billion) to labour costs in 2025.
The BRC urges the government to mitigate these costs and support flexible employment to prevent job losses.
