Agency worker regulations 1st Oct 2011
In line, automatic checking and summary reports for the total accrued AWR weeks for every hirer, employee & job.
The Agency worker regulations which came into force on 1st Oct
2011 spans some 50 pages. The fully corrrect calculation may
ultimately extend over 3 years of employment when all clauses of
the act are taken into account. In straight forward case an Agency
worker who works any day in a week for 12 weeks consecutively will
accrue the rights that they will enjoy parity of pay and conditions
under law with the minimum equivalent substantive full time
employee. The clauses mean that between every and any pair of
weeks, any agency worker may be absent for up to six weeks without
interrupting the accumulation process of the total 12 weeks. Put
another way, twelve weeks can be accumulated over in excess of a
year. On top of this, there are additional periods which cause the
accumulation process to be pause or keep running without the worker
being physically present.
All these are accounted for automatically by the internal AWR
calculator and displayed in line during the booking process in a
very user friendly way.

- Derogation
