Written Question
Employment
Tuesday 22nd October 2024

Asked by: Lord Caine (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by the Minister for Employment Rights, Competition and Markets on 10 September (HC5121), whether the Plan to Make Work Pay's policies of (1) the right to switch off, (2) 'day one' rights, and (3) ending fire and rehire, will apply to Government special adviser contracts.

Answered by Baroness Jones of Whitchurch - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

Qualification for inclusion under each of these employment rights will depend on whether individuals meet the eligibility criteria for each right. If a special adviser meets the eligibility criteria, then a right will apply to them.
