The Decent Jobs Deficit - The Human Cost of Zero-Hours Working in the UK

Issue date
The Decent Jobs Deficit ReportThe TUC believes that endemic poor treatment at work should not be tolerated. There is an urgent need to challenge precarious employment and to introduce a framework of policies designed to encourage the creation of decent jobs, offering decent hours and pay. To this end we call on politicians to adopt and implement policies which deliver:
  • Improved rights for zero-hours contract workers and others on casual contracts, 
  • All workers to benefit from the same employment rights
  • Equal pay for agency workers
  • Better enforcement of employment rights for low-paid, vulnerable workers
