I believe it means they will call you when they want you to work, but wont guarantee 25 hours a week ect. It will make it much harder for already struggling casual workers to make ends meet.
I’ve never heard the phrase “zero hour contracts” outside of the uk?
my clarification that it’s different from uber is important because in the UK zero hour contracts are still subject to different tax processes and employment law than being self employed.
