    Default zero hours contracts & pilon

    does being on a "zero hours contract" mean there is no way you are entitled to pilon?

    Provided that you are an employee, and that this was not a contract made in contemplation of a specific task which is expected to last less than 3 months (ERA 1996 s.86(5), then as you had over 1 months service you are entitled to 1 weeks notice - check contract for more generous provisions.

    If you are prepared to work the notice and prevented from doing so, then you are entitled to PILON.

    As a worker with no normal working hours the ERA makes it clear that the amount of a weeks pay for you will be an average weekly pay over the last 12 weeks, ignoring weeks in which no pay was received. s.224 ERA 1996
