period

9. The Temporary Staffing Agreement or the assignment confirmation shall take effect and apply for the period specified therein.

of the Temporary Staffing Agreement and any extension thereof.

11. The Client's notice period in relation to a Temporary Job shall always follow Randstad's notice period in relation to the temporary worker. The notice period thus depends on the collective agreement applying to the temporary worker.

remuneration and price

12. Prior to the commencement of the Temporary Staffing Agreement, and regardless of the terms on which the temporary worker is to be employed, the Client shall provide Randstad A/S with all relevant information for the Temporary job, including an accurate description of function, qualification requirements, working hours, salary, rates, supplements, pension, pay during sickness, duration of working time, place of work, overtime, breaks, rest periods, night work, holiday, floating holidays, working conditions and applicable collective agreement(s), local workplace agreements, customary practices etc., including all information specified in item 32 d.

13. Randstad A/S shall determine the price based on the above information. The Client shall inform Randstad A/S immediately and not later than 2 days from the receipt of this Temporary Staffing Agreement, if the information in the presentation is incomplete or incorrect or in case the level of the Temporary job does not correspond with the job the temporary worker actually does.

14. Randstad A/S is entitled to adjust the remuneration of the temporary worker and the price from the date the temporary worker started the Temporary job in accordance with corrected information. Client shall reimburse to Randstad A/S the expenses, and extra payment and fines for the temporary worker, if required.

15. The Client shall inform Randstad A/S about all taxable benefits, which are granted to the temporary worker, as Randstad A/S is the employer and responsible for reporting these to the tax authorities.

the client's obligations and responsibilities

16. Randstad A/S points out that, according to the Danish Act on the Legal Rights of Temporary Agency Workers, the Client has the following obligations in relation to the temporary worker:

(i) The Client shall inform the temporary worker about any vacant positions with the Client e.g. via postings on an appropriate location in the company or via the Intranet.

(ii) The temporary worker shall have access to the Client's collective facilities and goods, such as a canteen, childcare, fruit scheme,massage facilities, parking space, home workstation, transport facilities, access to fitness room etc. on equal terms with the Client's own employees. However, this does not apply if there are objective reasons for the differential treatment, e.g. if it would involve excessively great expense or major, practical difficulties. The same seniority requirements shall apply with regard to the collective goods, which may apply to the Client's own employees. The Client shall inform the employee representatives about the company's use of temporary workers.

(iii) The Client shall have the day-to-day instructional authority in relation to the temporary worker, and the temporary worker shall be subject to the Client's work rules, supervision and control. The Client shall ensure that the temporary worker is covered by the Client's indemnity and industrial injury insurance. Therefore, the Client will be invoiced all costs related to the temporary workers salary during the absence period related to work-related sickness and/or work-related injury. 

17. As the temporary worker will be working under the supervision and control of Client, the Client is solely liable for damages caused by the temporary worker to either Client itself, or a third party.

18. If the Client informs Randstad A/S within the first 8 hours of the temporary job that the temporary worker does not match the specified qualifications, Randstad A/S shall credit the Client with the time incurred. If this deadline is not observed, Randstad A/S reserves the right to send the Client an invoice for the number of hours worked by the temporary worker. If the temporary job is only agreed for one day or less, Randstad A/S shall be notified within 4 hours after the temporary worker has started the job.

payment and invoicing

19. Payment for Sundays and public holidays, overtime, staggered working hours and excess work is made in accordance with the applicable collective agreement for the Temporary job, applicable law or applicable rules regarding equal treatment.

20. Invoicing will be performed once a week. The Client must pay within 10 days from the date of the invoice. Any delayed payment shall be considered a breach by the Client, which implies that the due amount shall bear interest at a rate of 2% per month or fraction of a month without further notice. Randstad A/S reserves the right to claim additional compensation.

21. The minimum fee for Temporary jobs is 4 hours a day per temporary job.

Liability for indirect and consequential damages is excluded.

data protection

25. At all times, both Randstad A/S and the Client shall comply with their respective obligations subject to the applicable data protection legislation in connection with any personal data (i.e. data related to an individual), which the Client will receive from Randstad A/S during the performance of its responsibilities and obligations in accordance with this present Agreement. Personal data provided by Randstad A/S to the Client shall be provided (i) with a view to evaluating the proposed candidate (ii) in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and (iii) for purposes related to the candidate’s temporary

Any disputes between the parties shall be brought before the Copenhagen City Court as exclusive jurisdiction of first instance.

the client’s duty of disclosure in relation to Randstad A/S

31. With the Danish Act on the Legal Rights of Temporary Agency Workers, all staffing agencies in Denmark have been assigned a number of obligations in relation to the terms of the temporary workers. This increases the need for the Client to ensure that the staffing agency receives all information regarding a number of terms that apply with the Client. This will be amplified below.

collective agreements

32.
a. Randstad A/S currently has a collective agreement within the following sectors:

  • National collective agreement for  salaried employees within the sectors of trade, knowledge and  service between the Danish Chamber of Commerce and HK/Retail and Wholesale trade - HK/Private (Funktionæroverenskomsten for Handel, Viden og Service mellem Dansk Erhverv Arbejdsgiver og HK/Privat og HK Handel)
  • National collective agreement for temporary workers between the Danish Chamber of Commerce and the United Federation of Danish Workers (3F) (Landsoverenskomst for vikarer mellem Dansk Erhverv Arbejdsgiver og Fagligt Fælles Forbund)
  • National collective agreement between the Danish Chamber of Commerce and the Danish Association of Professional Technicians (Landsoverenskomst Teknisk Landsforbund mellem Dansk Erhverv Arbejdsgiver og Teknisk Landsforbund)
  • Collective agreement between the Confederation of Danish Industries and the Central Organization of Industrial Employees in Denmark  (Industriens overenskomsten med DI of COindustri)
  • Randstad A/S's corporate collective agreement within the wood sector between Randstad A/S and the United Federation of Danish Workers (3F) (Randstads virksomhedsoverenskomst på træindustriområdet mellem Randstad A/S og Fagligt Fælles Forbund)
  • Randstad A/S's corporate collective agreement within the dairy sector between Randstad A/S and the Trade Union NNF, the dairy industry (Randstads virksomhedsoverenskomst på mejeriområdet mellem Randstad A/S og Nærings- og Nydelsesmiddelarbejder Forbundet, Mejeribranchen)
  • Randstad A/S's corporate collective agreement within the baking and milling sector between Randstad A/S and the Trade Union NNF, the baking and milling industry (Randstads virksomhedsoverenskomst på bager – og mølleområdet mellem Randstad A/S og Nærings- og  Nydelsesmiddelarbejder Forbundet Håndværker/industrigruppen, Bager – og Møllerbranchen)
  • Building Agreement between Danish Construction Association (Dansk Byggeri) and the United Federation of Danish Workers (3F9 (Bygningsoverenskomsten mellem Dansk Byggeri og 3F)

In principle, Randstad A/S follows the provisions of these collective agreements. However, as the Danish Act on the Legal Rights of Temporary Agency Workers requires that the temporary worker is, in principle, granted terms corresponding to what would have applied pursuant to legislation, collective agreements or other binding general provisions if the temporary worker had been recruited directly by the Client to perform the same work, it is a prerequisite that Randstad A/S has knowledge of the actual, aggregate terms with the Client. The Client must therefore always forward information cf. item d.

b. If the work is not covered by Randstad A/S’s collective agreements, but by a collective agreement with the Client, the Client must forward the information cf. item d. The information must reflect the full employment relationship, implying that the Client must inform of both the collective agreement and any supplementary local workplace agreements or customary practices.

c. If the work is not covered by a collective agreement, the principle of equal treatment applies in relation to the Client’s other binding rules (e.g. customary practices or personnel policies). In these cases, the Client must also forward information cf. item d based on these provisions.

d. The information the Client is obliged to forward cf. items 32 a, b and c must be exhaustive and reflect the terms that apply or would apply if the temporary worker had been recruited directly by the Client to perform the same work. The information must be forwarded in anonymized form, and the Client must not share personally identifiable data (e.g. named employment contracts or payslips) regarding its own employees. The information must comprise all relevant terms pursuant to the applicable legislation, practice and collective agreements at any time, including (but not limited to):

  • The Basis: Information on applicable collective agreements, local workplace agreements, customary practices as well as the company’s specific practice for classification (e.g. which salary grade a comparable employee starts at).

  • The Terms: Rules and rates for remuneration (including Free Choice Account/Special Savings, pension and all forms of fixed or variable supplements), duration of working time, overtime, breaks, rest periods, night work, holiday, floating holidays, Weekday Holiday Payments (SH) and public holidays.

  • Special Protective Measures: Rules regarding protection of pregnant/nursing women (e.g. pay during maternity leave), children and young people, as well as anti-discrimination, if the Client offers terms in this regard that place the employee in a better position than legislation.

This information is a prerequisite for Randstad A/S to ensure compliance with the principle of equal treatment.

e. The Client is obliged to notify Randstad A/S immediately of any amendments to the conditions described in item d. This includes collective agreement renewals, new local workplace agreements, amendments to existing terms and changed practices relevant to temporary workers assigned by Randstad A/S.

f. If it transpires that the information provided cf. item d (or a lack of updates cf. item e) is defective, incomplete, misleading or has not been forwarded in a timely manner, the Client is obliged to indemnify Randstad A/S for any loss, cost or claim, including retrospective payments, salary differences, fines or legal costs, that Randstad A/S may incur as a result thereof. Randstad A/S furthermore reserves the right to adjust the pricing agreement prospectively. Randstad A/S’ commencement of an assignment, notwithstanding missing or incomplete information from the Client, shall not constitute a waiver of the Client’s obligations under these terms, including Randstad A/S’ right to full indemnity pursuant to this Clause.

g. The prices stated in the agreement shall be changed in accordance with any collective agreement amendments during the term of the agreement, just as the stated prices, in addition to the collective agreement amendments, will be adjusted once a year, without separate notice, at the percentage change in the net price index.
