FCSA Responds to Employment Rights Bill Inquiry FCSA has submitted its response to the Business and Trade Committee’s Employment Rights Bill inquiry, highlighting the need for tailored solutions that reflect the unique complexities of agency and umbrella employment. Key recommendations: 🔸 Exclude agency and temporary workers from additional zero-hours regulations unless mirrored guarantees are applied throughout the supply chain. 🔸 Clarify Statutory Sick Pay entitlements for temporary workers not on assignment. 🔸 Ensure fire-and-rehire reforms avoid unintended burdens on compliant employers. 🔸 Protect employment flexibility while recognising the value ethical umbrella companies bring to the market. FCSA continues to advocate for legislation that raises standards without destabilising the labour market. 👉 Read our full response here: https://lnkd.in/ecZWPa4n #EmploymentRights #FlexibleWorkforce #TemporaryWorkers #FCSA #WorkerProtections #LabourMarket

FCSA Responds to Statutory Sick Pay Consultation FCSA has submitted its response to the government’s consultation on strengthening Statutory Sick Pay (SSP). While we support improving financial security for workers, the proposals raise significant concerns for employers, particularly those operating in the temporary workforce market. Key Concerns: 🔸 Financial burden on umbrella companies already operating on tight margins. 🔸 Employer NIC liabilities on SSP payments. 🔸 Lack of clarity on SSP responsibility during assignment gaps. Our Recommendations: 🔸 Introduce rebates or subsidies for smaller businesses and umbrella companies. 🔸 Clarify SSP eligibility during assignment gaps and for workers with multiple employers. 🔸 Conduct a sector-specific impact assessment to avoid unintended consequences.
