Agency Workers Know Your Rights
Advice agencies within ASC have seen a rise in the number of issues relating to employment agencies denying workers their rights. A range of problems have been reported including failure to pay for work completed, failure to pay holiday pay, insufficient notice of termination of employment and discrimination.
Workers need to be aware of their statutory rights which include:
- Agencies cannot take money from workers to find them work.
- Agencies cannot take money for uniforms or equipment unless already agreed beforehand.
