Precarious working

Millions of workers in the UK are working on the minimum wage or below without any job security and very few employment rights. This lack of financial security causes a loss of dignity at work, and the inability to progress in a career or train to leave. They work long hours and are often living in poor housing.

This photomontage is a tribute to the millions of people world wide who cycle around delivering food and shopping to customers. Their long working hours and financial hardship can lead to social isolation and depression. The main reason workers take on this work is because it is the only form
available. Fortunately many precarious workers are coming together, joining unions to organise for better pay and conditions.
