Motion text

Congress welcomes the progress made through the hard work of activists and deplores the ways that institutions are trying to circumvent legislation and/or their own policies. Congress reaffirms that the focus of improving policy and obtaining fractional contracts must not be at the expense of job loss by casualised staff. Congress instructs NEC to obtain data and details and/or case studies including:
1. institutional anti-casualisation policies
2. staff who legally should have received a permanent/open-ended contract but are still on casualised contracts
3. staff who have a mixture of permanent/open-ended and casualised contracts
4. casualised staff who have lost their jobs as a result of policy changes.

And to:
a. name and shame the worst employers
b. publicise good practice, including through case studies
c. campaign for improved collective agreements, including through tribunal cases, where appropriate.
