Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the potential effect of the introduction of Operational MGS Employment Contracts for civilian guards at UK military bases on levels of staff fatigue.
The health, safety, and wellbeing of MGS employees is of the highest priority to the Department. While fatigue is not specifically assessed, all new rosters are subject to Trade Union consultation and assessed against the Working Time Regulations prior to introduction.
