The fundamental principle of the agency workers regulations is to provide agency workers with the same basic working and employment conditions of a comparable permanent employee after a qualifying period; this being just 12 weeks. The regulations were implemented on 1st October 2011.
The Department of Business Innovation and Skills have now released the full guidance. You can download it by clicking here.
Equal treatment after 12 weeks
After a qualifying period of 12 weeks the agency worker has the right to receive the same basic working and employment conditions of a comparable permanent employee, such as;- Pay & bonuses- Duration of working time- Annual leave "the requirement is simply to treat the worker as if he or she had been recruited directly to do the same job."
