Labour — Congleton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 March 2025

Debate

Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

I spent 13 years as a solicitor working in employment rights, predominantly for employees and periodically for employers, and I assure the hon. Gentleman that flexible working is not working for many mothers in this country. Many women are giving up jobs and becoming self-employed because their employers will not agree their flexible working requests.
