Most of these laws were written in Europe when staff leasing from external agencies was legalized at the end of '90/early '00.
They were meant to avoid what you describe.
I don't know if they work well, but it's better than nothing.
- Oladunk 5y agoI'm Norwegian and things are probably different down in mainland Europe, but at least here we have fairly little use of external agencies and temps. You're required by law to offer full time employment unless specific criteria are met. External agencies are usually used for cleaning, cantinas and things like that, but not much else. The (much, much) stricter labor laws grant the same rights to everyone regardless of employer, position and percentage, so there's not much to save from using external agencies anyway. One exception is concultancy agencies, but they are usually much more expensive (and offer better salaries), so that's mostly to avoid dealing with the recruiting aspect and risking bad hires. Temporary positions is a problem for nurses, in kindergartens and, perhaps ironically, for professors.
