One of the main concerns I have, which I think Deputy Cullinane shares, is the idea that someone would have a right to know in reasonable time what hours they would work from week to week, because that is where it causes huge economic insecurity and other problems for people in that sphere. I take on board the point about the translation but the idea that employers should have to notify what hours the employee has to work for the following week is a good thing.
