As I said 0hr contracts aren't only an option for 18yr olds are they?
Any part time employee would show the same commitment hand have the same opportunities with regard to advancement or training, you don't have to be on a 0hr contract to show willing.
I wasn't suggesting sitting at home, in no part of my post did I infer that would be an alternative, I proposed that as adults they are paid a wage that allows them to know that work pays. The answer is to ensure they have the chance to earn enough to live at least, by removing benefits for this age group they literally have no choice but to be exploited as they enter the workforce.
You have to ask yourself too if there is a constant stream of young adults who have no choice but to work in these low skilled areas on these contracts or 'apprenticeships' how will this impact on those who are older and low skilled, with families to support..
Who will be the most attractive option to businesses looking to save money?
