Speaking in the House of Lords on 8 May 2025

Debate

Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

In Amendment 37, I believe the noble Lord is seeking to remove the requirement for an agency worker to reasonably believe that they are needed to work the shift in order to receive short-notice payments. The Government’s view on this matter is the same as in the previous group: we believe that it would be overly prescriptive to specify that the right to short-notice payments arises only in cases where formal confirmation has been provided.
