They got 99% of employees to sign away their 1.5x overtime with that crap. I kept mine until the day I left  . They'd already used the same trick to get everyone to sign away their 1.5x Sundays but that was about 6 months before I started so I never had those in the first place. Sigh.

Yes but only Labour would do that.
