answer text <p>The Government cannot comment on individual cases. The Government has not made any assessment of the use of zero-hour or self-employment contracts in the security industry.</p><p>The availability of atypical or non-standard forms of employment provide a number of benefits for workers who cannot or do not want to commit to ‘standard’ full-time employment. This Government is absolutely clear that employers must take their employment law responsibilities seriously and cannot simply opt out of their responsibilities. We believe everyone deserves to be treated fairly at work.</p> more like this
