Analysis by The Health Foundation found that 36 per cent of employees in Scotland - the equivalent of 830,000 workers - were engaged in jobs with perceived negative aspects such as low levels of autonomy, well-being, and security - as well as low pay.

Trade unions and labour force experts have warned that increasing numbers of workers are relying upon precarious roles, with few of the benefits offered to those in permanent staff positions.
