CM welcomes reforms but defends flexible labour market
Recommendations to prevent employers abusing staff on zero-hours contracts are to be welcomed, according to the chief minister.
Howard Quayle told members of Tynwald he wants to minimise the lack of stability surrounding the contracts, but stopped short of opposing them.
Some have raised concerns about possible exploitation of those in the flexible labour market.
But Mr Quayle believes there are some in society who benefit from zero-hours contracts:
Person dies following road traffic collision at Hillberry
Contractors to start installing 20mph signs in Douglas and Onchan
Accessible bus stops rolled out across Bus Vannin network
Road closures in place following incident in Hillberry area
£1 million National AI Office launched to coordinate artificial intelligence policy and adoption
