That's a sweet hourly rate

 

[Andy78]

Look what hourly rate you get round here. Mind you must be fully qualified with wide ranging experience and 2391, on a zero hour contract.

what the hell is a zero hour contract anyways ?

 

[trev]

They employ you but don't give you any guaranteed hours so you could be slogging your guts out 1 week then sitting at home for the next 3

You're hourly working week is decided 2 to 3 weeks in advance.
You aren't guaranteed any hours any week (Zero) but may be asked to do 40hrs.

 

[polo1]

Zero hours contract = no guaranteed hours/week. Could be 5, 10, 15, 35 or.....zilch!

A shafting, basically, so that they can give you as many hours as you can cope with if they like you, or none if they don't, and there is nothing you can do about it. Just another offshoot of the AGENCY.

that really is pityful.

the patheticness of the wages is matched only by the daft job requirements.......

£9 per hour ? uke:

 

[wrighty]

well for that rate I wont be sending my CV in, I was earning more than that as a 3rd year apprentice in 08/09, an agency were offering a similar rate the other week and wanted 2391, I rung up because I could of sworn a 1 was missing from infront of the 9, turns out I was wrong so they got a piece of my mind,
