AGENCY AND TEMPORARY WORKERS TO HAVE SAME RIGHTS AS PERMANENT EMPLOYEES

The European Commission has put forward proposals that would require temporary staff and agency workers to receive the same terms and conditions as permanent employees in the end-user company – including pay, pensions, holiday and other benefits.

Currently in the UK, the primary employment relationship for agency staff is between the agency and the staff they employ. These proposals would force company�s who take on agency workers to afford them the same pay and benefits they give to their own staff. A move which will obviously increase administrative costs and remove the incentive for using agency workers in the first places.

As the British and European leader in Time and Attendance and Access systems, Tensor have provided new features in the WinTA software to track, record and maintain compliance with the Work Time Directive. WinTA is the worlds first Smart Card Time & Attendance system that meets the requirements of the new legislation.
