Amendment 33 pertains to how “reasonable notice” should be assessed for agency workers, including requiring the work-finding agency to offer shifts to agency workers as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving confirmed details from the hirer and carrying out suitability assessments in line with the relevant regulations. This amendment would replace the provision for a period of notice “presumed reasonable”, to be set in regulations for agency workers. Giving a presumption of what is reasonable notice provides the right balance between clarity and flexibility for employers and workers.
