In 2020, the Government introduced the right for all workers to receive a day one written statement of rights, setting out leave entitlements and pay. This ensures all workers have transparent information about their employment relationship.</p> answering member constituency Thirsk and Malton answering member printed Kevin Hollinrake question first answered 09/12/2022 10:33:45 answering member 4474 label Biography information for Kevin Hollinrake
