Workers (Predictable Terms and Conditions) Act 2023
Summary
This Act aims to give workers more predictable working hours and clearer employment terms. It requires employers to provide workers with better notice of their shifts and more stable contracts, especially for those currently on zero-hours or unpredictable arrangements.
A vote to support means
- —Supporting this Act means backing stronger protections for workers in unpredictable jobs like zero-hours contracts. It helps people know their schedules in advance and gives them more job security, so they can plan their finances and personal lives more easily.
A vote to oppose means
- —Critics worry this Act could make businesses less flexible and might discourage employers from hiring workers on flexible contracts altogether. Some argue it could increase costs for small businesses and reduce job opportunities for people who actually want flexible, casual work.
