Zero Hours Contracts – New Implications for Managers

Heads and SLT members need to be aware of the implications which may affect:

  • Mid Day Supervisors;
  • Casual/Zero hours support staff;
  • Zero hours teaching staff;
  • Peripheral Music Tutors;
  • Other sessional only workers

Sessional workers for whom the arrangements are more akin to a zero hours or casual arrangement may also fall within the new regulations if there is no guarantee that work will be provided by the employer.

It would be wise to ensure that the use of confidential information is protected and that any terms are revised which tend to restrict the freedom of a zero hours worker to take up work with another employer.

For a fuller summary of the new regulations and points for managers to consider see our article on our HR Management Dimensions blog – Zero Hours Contract Workers – New Rights.
