Petition all temp staff to show the benefits

15-Oct-2008

Perhaps all employment agencies should ask their temporary workers to sign a template letter which states that they are extremely happy with their conditions and value the benefits that temporary work gives them (recruiter.co.uk, ‘Labour Conference’, 25 September). For example, freedom of choice as to whether to work or not and yet still receive holiday pay and benefits — a choice that people in permanent positions don’t have.

All the signed letters could then be sent to Gordon Brown. I am sure that the response would be enormous and positive!
