Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if she will make an assessment of the implications for her policies of recent reports that Amazon plans to cut the pay of its yard marshals by 23 per cent; and whether she has made representations to Amazon as a result of those reports.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has not made any representations to Amazon with regards to their pay and conditions and no assessment of the impact on DWP policies has been made. The responsibility for employment law and employee rights sits with the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS).
