Strongly agree

Yes, but ban exclusivity clauses and guarantee a minimum number of hours

This answer aligns with the Conservative Party's approach to zero-hour contracts. While supporting their use, the party has taken steps to address some of the criticisms associated with them. For instance, the party banned exclusivity clauses in zero-hour contracts through the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act 2015, which prevents employers from restricting zero-hour workers from working for other employers.
