Using Temporary Staff
Is your Company at risk from being deemed their employer?
Or does that risk lie with the recruitment agency that supplies temporary
staff to you? In the past temporary and contract workers have been denied
basic employment rights because neither the employment agencies, nor
the organisations where the temporary worker is placed, has accepted
them as employees. If unfairly dismissed or made redundant, there was
no one to whom they could claim compensation, even if they had worked
for the relevant full qualifying periods. More and more these days,
employment tribunals come into play in this type of situation – could
this put your company at risk?
The 1st Recruitment Group, a leading local recruitment company, has taken the
decision to remove this risk for both their clients and temps.
From July 2005, 1st Recruitment offers employment contracts
to their temporary staff, with benefits
including holiday pay as well as regular performance reviews.
