Closed Ban 100% Commission Only Jobs

Closed on

I would like everyone to support the banning of 100% Commission only Jobs.

ALL job opportunities should come with a basic rate of pay.

People currently working for these companies are working for next to nothing, have to pay their own travel and other expenses while working within these companies for 60+ hours a week, leaving them with no time to find another job, to finance the job they have. (Which according to HMRC is an Employed Role, not "Self Employed" which these companies use a legal loophole so they do not have to pay Tax, NI, and Liability Insurance.

If these jobs, which are very easy to get, came with a basic rate of pay for the work they do, and the hours the workers put in, there would be less benefit claimants.
They either have to up the commissions or promise a basic rate on NMW - This should be the LAW!
