Some people are getting over excited about this. If you read the headline "Unproductive workers should lose their right to claim unfair dismissal, a leaked government report says".

Well if you are an employer, and there are people working for you who don't do their job properly, and instead of being productive, they actually cost the business money, then it is very difficult to get rid of them. The changes are to make it easier to get rid of unproductive workers, and not productive ones.

We need to remember that unproductive workers have a knock on effect for all of us, pushing up production costs, and therefore prices for consumers.

If you do your job to the best of your ability, then there is nothing to worry about. But if you are lazy, and do the bare minimum, then move over and let someone else do your job instead.
