Sports Direct is set to face questions on its use of controversial zero hours contracts for part time staff at its AGM ...ShareAction, the movement for responsible investment, plans to attend the company’s AGM in Shirebrook...using its rights as a shareholder to ask a question about the firm’s continued reliance on zero hours contracts. Sports Direct is the UK’s biggest employer to use the contracts, which have been described as unfair and exploitative by MPs and campaigners....20,000 part time staff at the company are thought to be employed on zero hours contracts with no guaranteed working hours, which also reportedly require them to seek permission from the company before working elsewhere. The government has announced it plans to outlaw zero hours contracts which actively ban employees from working elsewhere, but one MP has branded the Sports Direct contracts as requiring “exclusivity in all but name.”*
