A quick scenario:

A big job is taking place tomorrow, traffic management in place, hiab/crane booked and months in the planning as on a main road. Climber chips his nail varnish and can't work.

Bugger need another climber quickly. Ring agency and get a climber for the following day, all is good.

Climber turns up and proves to be useless/dangerous. Have to send him away. Job has now gone to poop, how would an agency sort this out?

The job turned to poop when ur original climber chipped his nail.....do you look to him for compensation?

Very unlikley, my experiance of agncey staff is that most of them struggle to pick their own nose.

I take it you must be a great climber 2Bob, cos I'd hate to try and read your CV :001_tt2:

I suspect the majority of people wanting to provide services to an agency will be then newly qualified looking to bag the experience that most employers want.

 

I also think the biggest taker of labour will be LA’s or those contracted to LA’s.

 

So at a guess an agency will end up supplying the inexperienced to LA’s
