WORK, RECONSTRUCTED

In this special series we get under the skin of entrepreneurship and take a deeper dive into the world of work in the digital age. In this episode I speak with CEO & Founder of Salaree, Paul Jackson who highlights the importance of workers not being charged to access their pay. This should be a service that employers pay for. This is an important principle that distinguishes Salaree from the other payroll 'innovations' that have treated faster access to pay as a 'premium' service that workers pay a fee for. These charges can add up over the month and represent a significant overhead to workers who are often on low pay and zero hours contracts.Thought leaders from the world of business and entrepreneurs share their thoughts, experiences and advice on what it takes to succeed in the labour market of tomorrow.
