New EC laws for temps?

by Sarah

The EU vote today on whether to give temporary workers the same rights in employment law as employees.  This includes the right to claim Unfair Dismissal.  We will update you on this subject as news comes through.  The idea has however been met with a great deal of concern in the business community.  The point of paying a premium for such staff is often because they are temporary and do not have the same employment rights as permanent staff in many areas.
