Women in precarious work in the UK face significant challenges balancing work and care, and employment law often excludes them from family-friendly rights. This book highlights the everyday problems these workers face and argues for stronger and more extensive rights to address their distinctive experiences. It also provides a clear explanation of complex legal issues and suggests ways to grant these women effective rights in the wake of COVID-19.

Most workers on temporary, zero hours, and involuntary part-time contracts in the UK are women, and many are also carers. However, employment law tends to exclude such women from family-friendly rights. This book draws on interviews with women in precarious work to expose the everyday problems that these workers face balancing work and care. It argues for stronger and more extensive rights that address precarious workers' distinctive experiences. Introducing complex legal issues in an accessible way, this crucial text exposes the failures of family-friendly rights and explains how to grant these women effective rights in the wake of COVID-19.
