should this law be repealed ?
as the propaganda spews out about the big bad nhs ,the government is destroying employment laws by the back door.im telling you the national minimum wage is next. now if you are unfairly sacked or treated unfairly in employment you will have to pay an upfront fee BBC News - Fees for employment tribunals begin . im asking this question because there is a pressure group being set up to pressurise the labour leadership to repeal this law if they win the next general election.

The pressure should be applied on the barstewards that are introducing it, not wait fer next election, Its a law to please bad bosses. simple as.

Shouldn't have been introduced in the first place, reeks of pleb know thy place.
Lidl's are looking for a housekeeper 10 hours a week. |
Re: should this law be repealed ?
I would expect the union to pay these fees after all we join unions to get support when we need it. I also expect that people will try and claim back the costs when they win at tribunal.
I don't think I agree with the charges and would like to know why they have introduced them. |
Re: should this law be repealed ?
Problem wi that Neil,is many firms these days are non-union, The cow who recently croaked made sure of that.:( Having been to a tribunal recently i doubt very much if costs are part of any settlement.

I think we've bumped heads on this one before Cashy. I'm obviously in a minority but I agree with this change.
Small employers who dismiss dollopers are then threatened with tribunal, even though there is no doubt that the employer will win, it's usually cheaper to pay them off with a nominal sum than to spend man hours preparing documentation, sending and resending spurious information requested by the coffin chasers representing, then adding the travel and associated hours costs of actually attending the tribunal. I have no doubt that there are some real cruddy employers out there, but the tribunal law as it stood was open to abuse, and the rise in figures for claims over the last ten years prove it. |
Re: should this law be repealed ?
as far as im concerned a zero hour contract is just a different way of saying unemployed but i bet folk on zero hours per week dont appear on unemployment figures.

so if your on working tax credits how do you make ends meet because to qualify for working tax credit you have to work 16 hours per week.Any less and you loose thatmoney as well
im not sorry but if you think zero hour contracts are acceptable your no better than teh scum running this country harsh ? not as harsh as finding out you have no work the next week and no means to feed yourself , put money in teh gas and electricity meters and pay the rent |
Re: should this law be repealed ?
they also drain resources in the revenue and customs chasing and changing every 5 days. so work is increased while staffing levels go down;)

Re: should this law be repealed ?
Its a scam to con people out of any benefits or help they get and to fudge unemployment figures
first they attack the vulnerable and disabled in society and now they are going after people who work but need a little help |

They should be grateful that, with work being so scarce, they have been chosen to have their time filled without the frustration the idle ne'er do wells claiming the dole and doing ****** all to improve their lot have to put up with. Anyone that believes any of the above is practical for a 'we're all in it together society, deserves to choke on their own balls!' |
Re: should this law be repealed ?
It is going to be tough going for the next couple of years, but after that I am sure that Labour will repeal all of the unfair laws and spending cuts that the Coalition have introduced:rolleyes:

for gods sake dont vote labour then especially with jones in the hot seat hes proven exactly where his loyalty lies and it aint with the people of hyndburn just keep in mind his actions over the EU referendum when he prommises anything and you wont go wrong basically the exact opposite of what he says he will do ;) so if he says he will vote in favour of reversing the zero hour contracts take it as a dead certain he wont and should he prommise to take action to ensure workers rights are restored then again assume he wont and if he says the sky is blue... just take a look up and check ya see this is the problem these days both red and blue are as crooked and bent as each other and as long as red and blue are the main two parties teh country will be basically screwed |

tories will keep us in the gutter and labour will sell us down the river is hardly a great choice
theres no way in hell milliband will ever stand up to the EU his family have benefited so much from been allowed to come here and settle .He probably thinks we need more imigrants if anything and would most likely look for more urine poor countries to join the EU so they can come here and reap the benefits of a nation of mugs |
