  1. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE EMPLOYMENT BUSINESS AND THE INTERMEDIARY AND BETWEEN THE HIRER AND THE INTERMEDIARY

3.3. Nothing in this Agreement shall render any Agency Worker an employee or worker of either the Employment Business or the Hirer. The Intermediary shall ensure that the Agency Worker does not hold him/herself out as an employee or worker of either the Employment Business or the Hirer.

3.4. If the Agency Worker has completed the Qualifying Period on the start date of the relevant Assignment or following completion of the Qualifying Period during the relevant Assignment, and if the Agency Worker is entitled to any terms and conditions relating to the duration of working time, night work, rest periods, rest breaks and/or annual leave under the AWR which are different and preferential to rights and entitlements relating to the same under the WTR, any such terms and conditions will be as set out in the relevant Assignment Details Form or any variation to the relevant Assignment Details Form (as appropriate) and the Intermediary will give the Agency Worker any such entitlements.

 

3.5. As a Temporary Work Agency, the Intermediary will notify the Employment Business as soon as possible prior to the commencement of the First Assignment under this Agreement if the Agency Worker has an AWR Regulation 10 Contract of Employment and shall provide a copy of that contract on request from the Employment Business.  The Intermediary will also notify the Employment Business immediately if and when any such contract is terminated.

 

3.6. As a Temporary Work Agency, the Intermediary will comply with the AWR in all relevant respects.

 

3.7. Save to the extent any such Loss results from any act or omission of the Employment Business or the Hirer, the Intermediary shall indemnify and keep indemnified the Employment Business (or, as the case may be, the Hirer) against any Losses the Employment Business (or the Hirer) may suffer or incur as a result of any claim made by or on behalf of the Agency Worker under the AWR.

SCHEDULE: “QUALIFYING PERIOD” AND “TEMPORARY WORK AGENCY”

For the purpose of the definition of “Qualifying Period” in clause 1.1 of this Agreement, when calculating whether any weeks completed with the Hirer count as continuous towards the Qualifying Period, where:

(a) the Agency Worker has started working during an assignment and there is a break, either between assignments or during an assignment, when the Agency Worker is not working;

(b) the break is:

(i) for any reason and not more than six Calendar Weeks;

(ii) wholly due to the fact that the Agency Worker is incapable of working in consequence of sickness or injury and the break is 28 Calendar Weeks or less; paragraph (iii) does not apply; and, if required to do so by the Employment Business, the Agency Worker has provided such written medical evidence as may reasonably be required;

(iii) related to pregnancy, childbirth or maternity and is at a time in a protected period, being a period beginning at the start of the pregnancy and ending at the end of the 26 weeks beginning with childbirth (being the birth of a living child or the birth of a child whether living or dead after 24 weeks of pregnancy) or, if earlier, when the Agency Worker returns to work;

(iv) wholly for the purpose of taking time off or leave, whether statutory or contractual, to which the Agency Worker is otherwise entitled which is:

  1. ordinary, compulsory or additional maternity leave;
  2. ordinary or additional adoption leave;

iii. ordinary or additional paternity leave;

  1. time off or other leave not listed in paragraphs (iv)i, ii, or iii above; or
  2. for more than one of the reasons listed in paragraphs (iv)i, ii, iii to iv above;

(v) wholly due to the fact that the Agency Worker is required to attend at any place in pursuance to being summoned for service as a juror and the break is 28 Calendar Weeks or less;

(vi) wholly due to a temporary cessation in the Hirer’s requirement for any worker to be present at the establishment and work in a particular role for a pre-determined period of time according to the established custom and practices of the Hirer;

(vii) wholly due to a strike, lock-out or other industrial action at the Hirer’s establishment; or

(viii) wholly due to more than one of the reasons listed in paragraphs (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) or (vii); and

(c) the Agency Worker returns to work in the same role with the Hirer,

any weeks during which the Agency Worker worked for the Hirer before the break shall be carried forward and treated as counting towards the Qualifying Period with any weeks during which the Agency Worker works for the Hirer after the break. In addition, when calculating the number of weeks during which the Agency Worker has worked, where the Agency Worker has started working in a role during an Assignment and is unable to continue working for a reason described in paragraph (b)(iii) or (b)(iv)i., ii, or iii., for the period that is covered by one or more such reasons, the Agency Worker shall be deemed to be working in that role with the Hirer for the original intended duration or likely duration of the relevant Assignment, whichever is the longer. For the avoidance of doubt, time spent by the Agency Worker working during an assignment before 1 October 2011 [or 5 December 2011] does not count for the purposes of the definition of “Qualifying Period”.

 

“Temporary Work Agency” means as defined in Regulation 4 of the AWR being a person engaged in the economic activity, public or private, whether or not operating for profit, and whether or not carrying on such activity in conjunction with others, of:

(a) supplying individuals to work temporarily for and under the supervision and direction of hirers; or

(b) paying for, or receiving or forwarding payment for, the services of individuals who are supplied to work temporarily for and under the supervision and direction of hirers.

Notwithstanding paragraph (b) of this definition a person is not a Temporary Work Agency if the person is engaged in the economic activity of paying for, or receiving or forwarding payments for, the services of individuals regardless of whether the individuals are supplied to work for hirers. For the purpose of this definition, a “hirer” means a person engaged in economic activity, public or private, whether or not operating for profit, to whom individuals are supplied, to work temporarily for and under the supervision and direction of that person.
