I hope the Minister will accept that this is a problem that rigid legislation will force to come to the surface, because it ignores the practical challenges that businesses face in a dynamic, ever-changing environment. The inability to make necessary adjustments to staffing levels would not only harm businesses; it could lead to negative consequences for workers in the longer term. If businesses are unable to manage their staffing costs and remain financially viable, they will struggle to sustain job opportunities, let alone expand them.
