"Employers are always seeking more productivity from workers, without considering the human factor, the worker's age, the weather conditions and the intense heat. We need to intervene before it's too late, reducing working hours and the load carried by workers, because it's impossible to sustain the rhythm they're forced to work at for many years."

Hi, I hear that if you work X amount of continuos weeks for Angard that they have to offer you a contract. Is this correct? If so I now understand why you hardly get any shifts. And if there's hardly any shifts available why is it that you're constantly recruiting new staff? Why not use the staff you already have and show a bit of loyally to your exsisting staff.

Not a contract beyond a casual one - after all that's what Angard are a Casual workers agency.

What you meant was that after 12 weeks under the Agency Worker Regulations you are entitled to the same basic rights as permanent employees of the business you are working for. https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... idance.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
