Workers (Employment Security and Definition) Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill aims to give more people, especially those in flexible or gig economy jobs, legal protection as 'workers' rather than selfemployed. It would extend rights like the minimum wage and paid leave to more people, while clarifying exactly who the law protects.

Presented by Martin Docherty-Hughes.
