Two Tier Workforce Code
EDM number 1009 in 2008-09, proposed by Joan Walley on 09/03/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Local government.
That this House expresses concern that public sector workers contracted out to the private and voluntary sectors are working alongside new employees doing identical jobs but on worse terms and conditions; calls upon those local authorities who are ignoring guidance laid out in the Two Tier Workforce Code to apply the Code to all public sector workers employed by contractors; and urges the Government during the current review of the Code to re-issue it as a mandatory directive, including a National Performance Indicator in the new Comprehensive Area Assessment System, introducing a simple means of redress for non-compliance, and raising the national awareness of the Code through a high-profile launch.
This motion has been signed by a total of 64 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
