Labour’s New Deal for Working People is a plan to MAKE WORK PAY, ensure SECURITY AT WORK, and help provide the WORK-LIFE BALANCE everyone deserves. We won the argument in the campaign, now we need to make it a reality – and ensure we stand firm against the attacks that will inevitably follow.

Make work pay:
- Raise the minimum wage so it’s a genuine living wage you can actually live on.
- Strengthen sick pay and make it available to everyone.
- More say at work so unions can raise pay and improve conditions.
Security at work:
- Crack down on bad employers with tough enforcement of rights at work.
- Ban zero hours contracts and fire and rehire.
- Full employment rights from day one for all workers, including sick pay, parental leave and protection from unfair dismissal.
Work life balance:
- Flexible working and family-friendly hours as a right from day one at work.
- A contract that reflects the number of hours you regularly work, with compensation for cancelled shifts.
- A ‘right to switch off’ outside working hours so work stays at work.
