Under proposals agreed by the Government and Trade Unions, the 1.4 million agency workers in this country will be given the same employment rights (excluding sick pay and pension entitlements) as permanent employees after 12 weeks into the job. The legislation is planned for this autumn, but will depend on a similar EU directive being passed before then. It is unlikely that any new regulations will come into force before April 2010.
