Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, it is the client’s duty to inform SRA of any risks that may face
the temporary worker, both in the tasks they are required to carry out and within the work place.
Clients should also:
- Inform SRA staff of Emergency & Evacuation Procedures.
- Let SRA staff be aware of any company Health & Safety Policies.
- Inform SRA office of any accident, injury or loss that may occur to any of their staff whilst on duty.
- Make sure cover staffs are only asked to carry out the tasks/duties that they were employed to do.
- Inform SRA cover staff of the First Aid Facilities and Accident Reporting Procedures for the organisation.
Payment is expected within thirty days.
After thirty days, interest on overdue invoices will be charged at a rate of 3% over the HSBC base rate.
This is necessary due to temporary staff being paid on a weekly basis.
Taking calls in the night or being woken on more than two occasions in a night would class the ‘sleep in’
being classed as being on a ‘Waking Night’ duty, and will be charged as such.
