Don't be silly. You simply ignore the law as many do, or try to get

If contracts are short term, then that should be obvious to the employee
before he takes the job and the implications as to why from the
timescale offered.

But they're frequently rolled on, with a small gap of say a week between.
Fortunately, the law now sees this as continual employment.

Individuals can't afford to go to law against an employer.

That's untrue. I've done it myself in the past, and I'm very much an
individual.

But not one on the minimum legal rate - or anywhere near that?
