AGREEMENT FOR WORK FINDING SERVICES

RE: The Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003 and contractors

The above Conduct Regulations, which control how recruitment companies conduct their business, came into force on 6th April
2004. The Conduct Regulations affect how we deal with ‘temps’ and also covers our dealings with contractors. However, after
prolonged lobbying from various interest groups, the Government adopted a proposal which enables limited company contractors,
such as you, to opt out of the Conduct Regulations. If you opt out then the Conduct Regulations will not apply to dealings between
you and us.
The Conduct Regulations are located here: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2003/3319/contents/made. Although it is not
possible for us to explain all of the Conduct Regulations to you, we have set out in brief below some of the pros and cons of opting
out:
Pros - Advantages of opting out
1. no increase in administration or forms to complete which could result in increased margins/costs to you
2. avoid potential delays in starting your assignments
3. less statutory restriction on your ability to substitute or sub-contract
4. avoid any implication that you are under the Client’s control at all times (although you may agree to be)
5. will assist in demonstrating that you operate outside IR35
6. easier to show you are in business on your own account
7. increases your marketability to Clients & recruiters looking to reduce administration and place candidates quickly
8. only one negotiation of contract terms in each case (rather than at the outset and at point of assignment)
9. less requirements on you to provide information and confirmations
10. more attractive to umbrellas and composite companies as they avoid increased statutory requirements

Cons - Disadvantages of opting out


1. no additional protection regarding potentially onerous contract terms (existing statutory protection remains)
2. no statutory entitlement to information regarding health and safety (although our terms deal with this)
3. no minimal protection when required to work away from home
4. no added protection regarding confidentiality (although Data Protection Act still applies)

If you would like to opt out of the Conduct Regulations then please provide your notice of opt out within the attached agreement
and return it to us at your earliest convenience. Please note that if you do not opt out then we cannot provide any services to you
until you have agreed to all of our terms for the supply of limited company contractors
