Casual Workers' Rights

EDM number 2133 in 2010-12, proposed by Katy Clark on 05/09/2011.
Categorised under the topic of Employment.

That this House is troubled at the lack of protection for casual workers in the United Kingdom; notes with disappointment that at present casual workers can have their shifts cut short with no prior notice; acknowledges that temporary agency workers can often be amongst the most vulnerable in the United Kingdom; and calls on the Government to introduce stronger minimum rights for casual workers, including a minimum notice period before a shift can be cut short, to ensure that they are treated fairly and with respect in the workplace.

This motion has been signed by a total of 40 MPs.
