Temporary Workers Directive

Action points for employers

• Establish where and how temporary agency workers are used. Does the business use casual temps to cover busy periods, or are they doing higher value work?
• Plan for the worst-case scenario. Calculate costs if agency workers got the same pay and benefits from day one or after only six weeks.
• How would you cover the work required if your organisation stopped using temps? Can potential extra costs be absorbed by savings elsewhere?
• Check whether agencies will pass on sudden cost increases, and how quickly (and at what penalty) can the contract be terminated if necessary.
