The world of work is changing. We have record numbers in work, but more than one in ten workers are in insecure jobs, where their basic rights are denied or ignored. We need no more and no less than great jobs for everyone. We want:

·         A ban on the regular use of zero-hours contracts and a crackdown on bogus self-employment

  • Stronger action to enforce existing rights at work, like the national minimum wage
  • New rights at work that reflect how working life has changed, like a right to two weeks’ notice of when you’ll be working  
  • Higher pay for everyone and a £10 per hour minimum wage
  • Better rights for unions to get into workplaces, stop abuses and negotiate pay collectively.


Public meeting organised by Unite Community Derby. Supported by the Derby Area Trades Union Council.
