'Workers who sign contracts which guarantee neither work nor wages from the high street chemist must be prepared to leave their families and homes.
Staff on zero-hours contracts at Boots may be sent to work abroad with little notice. Workers who sign the controversial agreements – which guarantee neither work nor wages – must also be prepared to travel to any of the chain’s UK stores.
The Sunday Mirror has seen a zero-hour contract from the high street chemist, which demands that its employees – most of whom are paid the minimum wage – must be prepared to leave their homes and families at any time. It states: “There is no requirement to be based permanently outside the UK – although you may be required to work abroad for short periods of time depending on the needs of your business.”'
