Motion Text

That this House welcomes the TUC's Great Jobs Agenda, which sets out that all workers should be entitled to be paid fairly, work in a safe and healthy workplace, be treated decently, have guaranteed hours, get a voice on what matters at work, and get the chance to get on in life; notes that while there are lots of great jobs, too many workers are currently in jobs that don't meet these basic standards; calls on the Government to lead the way by putting in place the laws and protections needed by workers; and calls on employers to recognise and work with trades unions to make great jobs a reality for all.
