Why precarious work doesn't pay
Precarious workers are faced with:
- Job insecurity and an uncertain future
- Low wages
- Limited or no access to social benefits, such as health or pension schemes
- Increased health and safety risks at work
- The denial of rights at work, such as the right to join a union or bargain collectively
- The constant threat of unemployment or underemployment
