AWR Checklist

As a regulated agency, we need to check your temporary worker receives the same pay and benefits as your own permanent staff after continuous 12 weeks in a comparable role — as required by law.

This includes things like pay, holiday, and workplace benefits. Please review the questions below and update your AWR form or speak to your consultant if any apply.

If you say Yes to anything below, please update your AWR form or speak to your consultant.

  • Is the temporary staff’s pay different from what your staff would get for the same job?
  • Are overtime hours paid at a higher rate?
  • Do you offer bonuses or commission?
  • Do you provide vouchers (e.g. childcare)?
  • Are night or weekend shifts paid at a different rate?
  • Do you pay for breaks (e.g. lunch or comfort breaks)?

Holidays & Time Off

  • Do you give more than 28 days holiday a year (including bank holidays)?
  • Are there other types of paid leave the temp should get

 

AWR Checklist
Day One Rights

From the first day on site, temporary staff must have the same access as staff to:

  • Canteens
  • Toilets and showers
  • Prayer rooms (if available)
  • Transport or parking
  • On-site childcare
  • View internal job vacancies
  • Support for pregnancy-related needs

If the Agency Worker has previously worked in your organisation/or for another company connected to your organisation and they completed the same role, we must be informed their dates of employment as this could affect their AWR entitlement.
