Precarious Employment

Session 2 : Employment Rights

Motion 9 )

Conference condemns unscrupulous employers who engage in practices such as unpaid hours, zero hour contracts, agency work and bogus self-employment. These practices are not only
a threat to the livelihood of workers but also to compliant employers. Any employer found to have forced workers in to bogus self-employment should be:

• Fined for engaging in the practice, the ne being a multiple of tax and PRSI forgone

• Barred from the public sector projects tender list

• Barred from holding a directorship in any company

Conference calls for ICTU to work with all trade unions, compliant employers and any other like- minded bodies to stamp out the scourge of bogus self-employment & all other forms of precarious employment.
