The Employment Business is not obliged to offer an Assignment to the Temporary Worker and the Temporary Worker shall not be obliged to accept any Assignment offered by the Employment Business.
3.2 The Temporary Worker acknowledges that the nature of temporary work means that there may be periods when no suitable work is available.

3.4 Where the Required Assignment Information is not given in paper form or by electronic means, the Employment Business shall confirm it in writing or electronically as soon as possible and in any event no later than the end of the third Business Day following the day on which the Assignment was offered to the Temporary Worker.
3.5 Unless the Temporary Worker requests otherwise, clause 3.3 will not apply where the Temporary Worker is being Introduced or supplied to the Client to work in the same position as one in which the Temporary Worker has previously been supplied within the previous five Business Days and the Required Assignment Information (with the exception of the date or likely duration of the Assignment) is the same as that already given to the Temporary Worker.
3.6 Subject to clause 3.5 and clause 3.7, where the Assignment is intended to last for five consecutive Business Days or less and the Required Assignment Information has previously been given to the Temporary Worker and remains unchanged, the Employment Business shall provide written confirmation of the identity of the Client and the likely duration of the Assignment.
3.7 Where the provisions of clause 3.6 have been met but the Assignment extends beyond the intended five consecutive Business Day period, the Employment Business shall provide the remaining Required Assignment Information to the Temporary Worker in paper or electronic form within eight Business Days of the start of the Assignment or by the end of the Assignment, if sooner.

4.1.3 the Client wishes to engage the Temporary Worker through another employment business with the Relevant Period.

5. TEMPORARY WORKER’S OBLIGATIONS
5.1 The Temporary Worker is not obliged to accept any Assignment offered by the Employment Business. If the Temporary Worker does accept an Assignment, the Temporary Worker shall:

5.1.2 observe any relevant rules and regulations of the Client’s organisation (including normal hours of work) of which the Temporary Worker has been informed or of which the Temporary Worker should be reasonably aware;

5.2 If the Temporary Worker is unable for any reason to attend work during the course of an Assignment, they should first inform the Employment Business at least one hour before their normal start time to enable alternative arrangements to be made. If this is not possible, the Temporary Worker should inform the Client and then the Employment Business as soon as possible.
5.3 If, either before or during the course of an Assignment, the Temporary Worker becomes aware of any reason why they may not be suitable for an Assignment, they shall notify the Employment Business without delay.
6. REMUNERATION
6.1 Subject to the Temporary Worker submitting properly authorised time sheets in accordance with clause 7, the Employment Business shall pay the Rate of Pay to the
Temporary Worker. The Rate of Pay may vary but the initial rate shall be set out in the relevant Booking Placement Form for a particular Assignment. It will be at least equivalent to the appropriate national minimum wage in force at the time that the Assignment is undertaken.
6.2 The Temporary Worker agrees that the Employment
Business shall be entitled to deduct from the Rate of Pay any money which the Temporary Worker may owe to the Employment Business at any time, any deductions which the Temporary Worker has agreed can be taken from the Rate of Pay and any deductions which the Employment Business may be required to make by law in particular in respect of PAYE pursuant to Sections 44-47 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 and Class 1 National Insurance Contributions.
6.3 Subject to any applicable statutory entitlement and to clauses 8 and 10, the Temporary Worker is not entitled to receive payment from the Employment Business or the Client for time not spent working on the Assignment, whether in respect of holidays, illness or absence for any other reason, unless otherwise agreed.
7. TIME SHEETS
7.1 At the end of each week of an Assignment (or at the end of an Assignment if it is for a period of one week or less or is completed before the end of a week) the Temporary Worker shall deliver to the Employment Business a completed time sheet indicating the number of hours worked during the preceding week (or such lesser period) and signed by an authorised representative of the Client.
7.2 Subject to clause 7.3, the Employment Business shall pay the Temporary Worker for all hours worked on a weekly basis regardless of whether the Employment Business has received payment from the Client for those hours.
7.3 Where the Temporary Worker fails to submit a properly authorised time sheet, any payment due to the Temporary Worker may be delayed while the Employment Business investigates (in a timely fashion) what hours, if any, were worked by the Temporary Worker. The Employment Business shall make no payment to the Temporary Worker for hours not worked.
7.4 For the avoidance of doubt and for the purposes of the WTR 1998 or WTR Northern Ireland 1998, the Temporary Worker’s working time shall only consist of those periods during which they are carrying out activities or duties for the Client as part of the Assignment. Time spent travelling to the Client’s premises (with the exception of time spent
travelling between two or more premises of the Client), lunch breaks and other rest breaks shall not count as part of the Temporary Worker’s working time for these purposes. This clause 7.4 is subject to the Employment Business’ obligations to provide the Temporary Worker with the Relevant Terms and Conditions on completion of the Qualifying Period.
7.5 The Temporary Worker acknowledges and accepts that it could be a criminal offence under the Fraud Act 2006 to falsify any time sheet, for example by claiming payment for hours that were not actually worked.
8. ANNUAL LEAVE
8.1 Subject to clause 8.3, the Temporary Worker is entitled to the equivalent of 5.6 weeks (28 days where you work at least 5 days a week and pro-rated where you work for fewer than 5 days a week) paid holiday during each holiday year (including all bank holiday entitlements). The Employment Business’ holiday year commences at the start of the Employment Business’s financial year, and concludes at the end of week 52 in each financial year. The financial year week numbers are clearly displayed on the Temporary Worker’s wage slip. If an Assignment starts or finishes part way through the holiday year, the Temporary Worker’s holiday entitlement during that year shall be calculated on a pro-rata basis rounded up to the nearest half day.
8.2 The Temporary Worker’s entitlement to holiday pay under this clause will be calculated in accordance with the WTR 1998 or WTR Northern Ireland 1998 and any payment for annual leave in excess of the minimum entitlement pursuant to the WTR 1998 or WTR Northern Ireland 1998 shall be calculated based on a maximum of 37.5 hours per week. All entitlement to annual leave must be taken during the course of the holiday year in which it accrues and no untaken holiday can be carried forward to the next holiday year.
8.3 The Temporary Worker should give at least the same notice as the number of days leave required of any proposed holiday dates and these must be agreed by the Employment Business in writing in advance. No more than 10 days’ holiday may be taken at any one time unless prior consent is obtained from the Employment Business. The Employment Business may require the Temporary Worker to take holiday on specific days, as notified to the Temporary Worker.
8.4 Subject to clause 8.3, in the course of any Assignment during the first holiday year, the Temporary Worker is
entitled to request leave at the rate of one-twelfth of the Temporary Worker’s total holiday entitlement in each month of the holiday year.
8.5 Save where this clause is amended by the Booking Placement Form, where a bank holiday or other public holiday falls during an Assignment and the Temporary Worker does not work on that day, then subject to the Temporary Worker having accrued the entitlement to payment for holiday in accordance with clauses 8.1 and 8.2 (if applicable), the Temporary Worker may, upon giving the notice set out in clause 8.3, take a bank holiday or other public holiday as part of the paid holiday entitlement.
8.6 If the Temporary Worker has taken more holiday than their accrued entitlement at the end of the Assignment, the Employment Business shall be entitled to deduct the appropriate amount from any payments due to the Temporary Worker.
9. WORKING TIME REGULATIONS OPT OUT
The Temporary Worker may opt out of the maximum 48 hours working week, provided for under the WTR 1998 or the WTR Northern Ireland 1998 by signing the Working Time Regulations Opt Out on the cover page of this agreement.

10.1 If the Temporary Worker is absent from work for any reason, they must notify the Employment Business of the reason for their absence as soon as possible but no later than 8.00 am on the first day of absence.
10.2 If the Temporary Worker satisfies the qualifying conditions laid down by law, they may be entitled to receive Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) at the prevailing rate in respect of any period of sickness or injury during the Assignment. The Temporary Worker will not be entitled to any other payments during such period.
10.3 In all cases of absence, a self-certification form, which is available from the Employment Business, must be completed on the Temporary Worker’s return to work and supplied to the Employment Business. For any period of incapacity due to sickness or injury which lasts for seven consecutive days or more, a doctor’s certificate (a “statement of fitness for work”) stating the reason for absence must be obtained at the Temporary Worker’s own cost and supplied to the Employment Business. Further certificates must be obtained if the absence continues for longer than the period of the original certificate.
10.4 The Temporary Worker’s qualifying day for SSP purposes during an Assignment shall be Wednesday in every week.
11. TERMINATION
11.1 The Employment Business, the Client or the Temporary Worker may terminate the Assignment at any time without prior notice or liability.
11.2 The Temporary Worker acknowledges that the continuation of an Assignment is subject to and dependent on the continuation of the agreement entered into between the Employment Business and the Client. If that agreement is terminated for any reason, the Assignment shall cease with immediate effect without liability to the Temporary Worker, except for payment for work done up to the date of termination of the Assignment.
11.3 Unless exceptional circumstances apply, the Temporary Worker’s failure to inform the Client or the Employment Business of their inability to attend work as required by clause 5.2 will be treated as immediate termination of the Assignment by the Temporary Worker without notice.
11.4 If the Temporary Worker is absent during the course of an Assignment and the Assignment has not otherwise been terminated, the Employment Business will be entitled to terminate the Assignment in accordance with clause 11.1 if the work to which the Temporary Worker was assigned is no longer available.
