Boycott Workfare
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Boycott Workfare is a British campaign group that has opposed "workfare" policies in the United Kingdom. The group's campaigning has been very successful in making companies and charities pull out of "workfare". In January 2014 the group lodged freedom of information requests to investigate the use of workfare by local government. Of the 271 councils which responded 62% of them had used unpaid workers during the past two years. This amounted to more than half a million hours of unpaid labour.[1] As of July 2014, a total of least 35 organisations have ended their involvement in workfare, because of negative publicity.[citation needed]
