Agency workers recommendations 1

The consultation looks at:

  • how umbrella companies or intermediaries could be brought within the scope of the Employment Agency Standards Inspectorate (EAS).

It also seeks to gather evidence on the level of abuse of the ‘Swedish Derogation’ with consideration of whether EAS’ remit should be extended to cover the enforcement of the Agency Workers Regulations.
