'A fair day’s work deserves a fair day’s pay'
Stuart Freedman via Getty Imageswho doesn’t serve in government, the opportunity to introduce your own legislation is extraordinarily slim.
I brought forward legislation that would ban the practice of unpaid work trials: a soul-destroying exploitative anachronism of the modern labour market. To this day we still do not know how many people are being asked to complete unpaid trials, the number of hours of unpaid labour carried out each year as part of trial shifts, and their true cost - though it is estimated that unpaid trial shifts contribute to around £3billion in missing wages annually.
Legislation, the government claimed, simply was not needed. This claim was torched once again when, just three months ago, a judge stated in an employment tribunal that “legislation does not give explicit guidance as to how long these [unpaid trials] may last”.
