"The current Labour government's measures on workers' rights, while an improvement, are weak and have been watered down after pressure from corporate lobbyists. The Greens are the new workers' party, and we will address the massive imbalance in our workplaces and give control back to workers."
"The Green Party is calling for a £15 minimum wage for all workers, regardless of age, by April 2027. Other pledges include scrapping all 'anti-union and anti-strike laws' introduced since 1979."
The Green Party of England and Wales advocates for a £15 minimum wage for all workers as part of its 'Worker's Charter'. This includes protections from unfair dismissal from day one, bans on fire and rehire practices, and zero-hour contracts. The party criticizes Labour's employment measures as insufficient. The current minimum wage varies by age, and Labour plans to equalize it. The Green Party also seeks public sector pay rises to match inflation and the repeal of anti-union laws established since 1979.
