The TUC said its CoVE update is the first of a new series focusing on insecure employment.

It puts forward a five-point action plan, calling on the government to address job insecurities in the workforce. It includes rights at work for employees, family-friendly rights, protection from being unfairly fired.

This was the first in a series of TUC reports looking at the new insecure workforce. This report concentrated on describing the new insecurity. Future reports will set out in more detail how these issues should be addressed.

However, the TUC believed that there are five areas where government should act to ensure that everyone has decent rights and protection at work.

Make sure that everyone can access the same floor of rights at work, family-friendly rights, protection from being unfairly fired and the right to redundancy pay.

It said that as an immediate first step, the government should create a legal presumption that everyone qualifies for the full set of employee rights. The report also urged the government to scrap fees of up to 1,500 U.S.dollars that prevent many workers from challenging unfair dismissal at employment tribunals.

The TUC report concluded with a call to strengthen workers'ability to organize for better conditions at work through trade unions.
