Terms of Business between Labour Providers and Labour Users for the Supply of Temporary Workers

Operational Use of the New Model Terms

These Terms should be used when supplying a labour user with temporary workers. Labour providers must supply the labour user with a copy of these Terms before any supply starts, and we would strongly recommend providing a copy of these Terms and reaching agreement at the point at which any information is provided to the labour user.

The body of the Terms does not include any specifics regarding individual temporary workers; these are contained within the Supply Service Schedule on the last page. Once the details of supply have been agreed the Terms and the completed Supply Service Schedule should be re-issued to the hirer.

The Terms assume that you will be issuing your workers with the Boyle Highways Ltd template contracts. If you use any other wording, changes will be required to these Terms.

Before issuing, you should read all clauses of these Terms to ensure that you are happy with them. You should ensure that the assignment details and contractual terms reflect the reality of the supply situation. Please be aware that any changes made to the wording of the Terms could affect other clauses within it. To ensure you have identified, and where possible mitigated, all risks we would advise that you seek further advice before making any changes.

You should pass a copy of the document to your insurers for review, to ensure that there are no clauses within the Terms that are inconsistent with your insurance cover.

These Terms have been created by Boyle Highways Ltd as a generic document for the supply of temporary workers. Should you have any queries with regard to its content or use, please contact Ben Boyle of Boyle Highways Ltd.
