Casual Workers Policy consultation

A consultation is currently taking place on the council’s Casual Workers Policy.

Casual workers are an essential part of service provision in a variety of areas, particularly in frontline services such as schools, residential and domiciliary care. The council recognises that, while the contractual relationship with casual workers is fundamentally different, they work alongside permanent and temporary staff in delivering services as valued members of a team.

Updates to the current 2009 policy are proposed in order to incorporate clarifications regarding its practical application, national changes to teachers’ conditions of service and the pension rights of Local Government Employee Group casual workers.

The consultation runs until 18 January - have your say
