BEIS has published a consultation on measures recommended by the Low Pay Commission which focus on so-called “one-sided flexibility” – i.e. some low-paid casual, zero hour and gig workers and the Commission’s finding that shift cancellations and short notice of work schedules were significant problems.
The Consultation canvasses views on:
a right to reasonable notice of work schedule
compensation for shift cancellation or curtailment without reasonable notice
