A zero-hour contract is a type of employment contract in United Kingdom labour law between an employer and an employee, under which the employer is not obliged to provide any minimum number of working hours to the employee. In 2015, employers in the UK were prohibited from offering zero-hour contracts that prevented employees from working for another employer at the same time. In September 2017, the UK Office for National Statistics estimated that there were over 900,000 workers on zero-hour contracts, 2.9% of the employed workforce. In the UK, zero-hour contracts are controversial. Trade unions, other worker bodies, and newspapers have described them as an exploitation of labour. Employers using zero-hour contracts include Sports Direct, McDonald's and Boots.
