    They’re agency staff through Staffline. Partially unionised through Unite, and probably on something similar to a zero-hours contract with few employment rights. They’re not contractors, they’re normal people on lower rates and with fewer benefits than permies.

      Its wrong from a data breach prospective. But a contractors employer is their company - not the end client.

      Do you claim JSA too?
      Is it a B2B arrangement? Evidence for that?

        Seems like you are the one who has no clue, what B2B? Agency workers are permies.

          Well they're not permies, but they are employees.

            Actually I was referring to the fact that their personal data has been leaked and by the look of it, it could have implications. But in any case, it looks like they're going to be even poorer buggers soon...
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
