Over three million temporary agency workers across the EU benefit from
protection of EU law. Equal treatment from day one for temporary agency
workers compared to permanent workers in terms of basic working and
employment conditions (including pay, holidays, working time, rest
periods and maternity leave) unless social partners agree otherwise.
Equal access to collective facilities (such as canteens, child care
facilities, or transport services). Better access for agency workers to
training both when working on an assignment, and in between assignments.
