Agency workers are protected by the WTR, which gives them rights to holidays, rest breaks and protection in relation to night work. In addition, qualifying agency workers have rights under the Agency Workers Regulations 2010 (AWR). Under the AWR, agency workers who have worked in the same post for 12 weeks for the same end-user are entitled to equal treatment on pay, holidays and working time when compared to an equivalent direct employee.
