Health and safety for gig economy, agency and temporary workers

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has published updated guidance on health and safety for gig economy, agency and temporary workers.

The gig economy is growing, and the ways people work are changing, so employers need to think differently about how to keep workers healthy and safe.

The guidance for employers includes an overview of why employers should take account of gig economy, agency and temporary workers.

This is supported by guidance for workers, which sets out their responsibilities and how their employer should protect them.
 
There are also links to relevant advice for specific sectors, including agriculture, construction, hospitality, cleaning and transport/logistics. 

Visit the HSE website for help and information to keep people safe and healthy at work.
