Zero hours contracts are a small but important part of the UK’s flexible labour market. This Government is committed to putting more power into the hands of individuals and businesses to find and create work that suits their personal circumstances. The Government has widened the ban on exclusivity clauses, to contracts where the guaranteed weekly income is equivalent to or below the Lower Earnings Limit of £123 a week. The reforms ensure that workers in this group that have exclusivity clauses can top up their income with extra work if they choose.
