Make Zero Hour contracts illegal

Additional Information

Zero Hour contracts are being used by more and more companies to take advantage of their workforce. With no guarantee of work or pay, staff are completely at the mercy of their employer. At a time of economic crisis and high unemployment, people willing to work need a guaranteed minimum amount of hours and pay written into contracts. Make zero hour contracts illegal and give the unemployed a viable option for getting back to work.
