Zero-hours Contracts

Debate between Chi Onwurah and Chuka Umunna

Wednesday 16th October 2013 Commons Chamber

[Mr Umunna]

I completely agree with my hon. Friend; of course, it means they can undercut others, so hers was a point well made.

[Chi Onwurah (Newcastle upon Tyne Central) (Lab)]

I congratulate my hon. Friend on the excellent points he is making in support of good companies that recognise, as I know from my time in business, that those with insecure jobs will never deliver for their companies the same quality of work or be as motivated as a well-paid, secure employee.
