Over 1.125m people were employed on a #zerohours contract between October to December 2022.
This is an 8.5% increase on the previous quarter & represents an all time high
Young workers, women workers and people born outside the UK are all more like to be in zero hours employment.
Moreover, 1 in 9 workers aged between 16 and 24 (11.7% ) are now on a zero hours contract!
The world of work is precarious for too many

(see report below on rising numbers of over-50s on ZH contracts, the very group the 'mid-life MOT' is going to be aimed at).

In other words #tories kill aspiration.

Now I'm a blubbing twat.

As a #zeroHours employee, do I also qualify for #ZeroRights?
I'm afraid it's the future for employment in Britain.
With #UKLabour turning their backs on #UKUnions, you/we are powerless.
