More protection needed for homeworkers
Article Abstract:
A report by Labour Research states that most people in the UK who work at home for a living do so in very uncomfortable conditions as they have no permanent workspace. Labour Research reports that the National Group on Homeworking (NGH) which campaigns for homeworkers' rights, estimates there are around 1 million industrial homeworkers in the UK, and these people are often denied the rights afforded to other workers.
