Burnham Resources, a payroll recruitment consultancy based in Egham, Surrey, has recently released a news blog article about data that is part of new survey findings from the Chartered Institute of Personnel Development (CIPD).The data reveals that zero-hours contract employees reportedly experience similar levels of job satisfaction, work-life balance and personal well-being to employees in permanent, full-time contracts.

The number of employees on zero-hour contracts has dramatically increased from the CIPD’s earlier estimate of 1 million in 2013 to the new figure of 1.3 million in 2015. The report revealed that those in zero-hour contracts experience comparable satisfaction levels in their relationship with their managers and colleagues. However, while the majority of zero-hour employees choose to work part-time (nine out of ten), they are also as a whole more likely to request additional working hours than part-time employees, with 22% saying they would like to work more hours, compared to 18% of all voluntary part-time employees.
