ZERO-HOUR CONTRACTS

The End of Exploitative Zero-Hour Contracts: How Youco Can Help Workers Thrive in the New World of Work

One of the most anticipated changes in employment law for 2024 is the ban on exploitative zero-hour contracts, part of the Labour government's broader "New Deal for Working People."
