An economy that works for young workers

Soaring rent, unfair fares, low pay and insecure contracts. The economy isn’t working for young workers. Here’s how Labour would fix that…
A real living wage – meaning a pay rise for 116,000 people under 25 in Scotland.
Only Labour will take the action needed to end the Tories' economic failure and introduce a real Living Wage of £10 an hour. Share this ↓ pic.twitter.com/UPpx8FSKPj

A ban on zero hours contracts.
⏰ New figures published today outlining what young people do after they finish high school count zero-hours jobs as a 'positive destination’.
We don't think they are. That's why the next Labour government will call time on zero-hours contracts.
