We used our visit to the House of Commons (to pick up our silver Green Apple Award for Environmental Best Practice) as an opportunity to lobby our Peterborough MP Stewart Jackson about the Agency Workers’ Directive - again.
We are heavily involved with our industry body the Recruitment and Employment Confederation to ensure the introduction of the new legislation – now due in October 2011 - is managed in the most efficient way possible for agencies, clients and workers.
We have been speaking to Mr Jackson on a regular basis, discussing our concerns about the legislation and the effect it may have on the economy and unemployment.
He has visited our offices - but this time we saw him on his own turf in the House of Commons.
He has previously told us he agreed the directive appeared ‘unworkable’ and he seems to agree with our belief that while the principle of protecting ‘vulnerable’ agency workers remains admirable the effect on all agency workers and those who use them could prove disastrous.
He listened to our thoughts and assured us it was something he would continue to take an interest in.
We look forward to seeing some direct action from him on this as the new session of Parliament progresses.
