This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Change Law on Company Contracts for Workers
More details
Stop companies making contracts which state that they can change the contract at any time to suit themselves!
Stop employers writing must be fully flexible in Job advertisements. This can discriminate against single working parents and other people who just can't be fully flexible for genuine reasons.
Go back to old style contracts where working days/hours are stated
Make employers have more contracts to suit working parents who can't work weekends due to childminding issues. Registered child minders do not work weekends.
More flexibility for single parents regarding working hours, especially in large companies such as retail.
Stop employers bullying workers in to working any hours they want!
