Section 57ZD Agency workers: supplementaryF1
England, Wales and Scotland
Without prejudice to any other duties of the hirer or temporary work agency under any enactment or rule of law sections 57ZA to 57ZC do not apply where the agency worker—
has not completed the qualifying period, or
is no longer entitled to the rights conferred by regulation 5 of the Agency Workers Regulations 2010 pursuant to regulation 8(a) or (b) of those Regulations.
Nothing in those sections imposes a duty on the hirer or temporary work agency beyond the original intended duration, or likely duration of the assignment, whichever is the longer.
Those sections do not apply where sections 55 to 57 apply.
In this section and sections 57ZA to 57ZC the following have the same meaning as in the Agency Workers Regulations 2010—
“agency worker”;
“assignment”;
“hirer”;
“qualifying period”;
“temporary work agency”.
