Agency Worker Regulations (AWR) Calculation
In line, automatic checking and summary reports for the total accrued AWR weeks for every hirer, employee & job.
The Agency Worker Regulations (AWR) came into force on the
1st October 2011, and the act on the whole is over 50 pages long.
In extreme cases, where all clauses of the act are to be
considered, the calculation may extend over 3 years. In
its simplest terms, an agency worker who works any day in a
week for a period of 12 weeks will automatically acquire the
same rights as a full time employee. Although it isn't quite that
straightforward as between every or any pair of weeks, a worker can
be absent for up to six weeks, meaning that in some cases, it
can take up to a year for a worker to gain full time employee
rights. There are also additional periods where the 12 week
accumulation process can be paused or keep running without the
worker being physically present.
All these can be accounted for through the use of the internal
AWR calculator in AVA and are displayed during the booking
process.
AWR includes:
- Derogation
- Automatic handing of reemployed substantive workers
- 3rd party Agency workers
- Notification of impending parity.
- Reports for clients
- Corrrect legal entity allocation
- Fully flexible job description handling
