Reply to: Opting or Opting out

Knowing my users, there's only one sign that would have covered the vast, vast majority of them.

That's the challenge - to find the differentiator.

Left handed versions of above.

I used to work with a guy who'd learned to sign. He explained that for a person, you'd pick on a characteristic and mime that (a bit like your German thing). We spent a happy afternoon coming up with signs for all our users .

Where specifically does it give guidance on opting in/out AWR? There is no such choice. I think you mean the Conduct of EA/EB Regulations and the EA/EB is not allowed to coerce the worker one way or the other.

Yeah. WIS:

Ummm - that's the guidance on AWR.

Not on the agency regulations. One cannot opt in or out of AWR.

He sounds clever. I used to speak a tiny bit of sign language. I once had a deaf PM who taught me a few useful words.

Well, not speak obviously, but I could make some shapes. 'German' was a finger sticking up over your head, like their WW1 helmets. I still remember the alphabet.

Can this Belgian speak sign language as well?

And he speaks Russian, some mandarin, some Thai and some Japanese. Churchy struggles with sign language.

He also lies well enough to be an agent.

Over there in the CUK Navigation box under "Agency Workers Regulations" or click this Agency Workers Regulations AWR / Directive for IT Contractors AWD 2011

Where do they speak Walloon? I thought that was another name for the Belgian language.

[psychocandy]

And Flemish?

[SimonMac]

What, that can speak Belgian?

I knew a bloke from up north once who could speak a bit of Esperanto. Self taught he was. Is that like Belgian?

Well as there is no Belgian language (its French, German or Dutch) I would say probably as good as a native

Apparently he can but only when ones back is turned

Notice I am ignoring the "cheap shots" about my stupidity and professionalism.
however thanks to you all I have just sorted it out. He is going to opt in.

You dear Sir are probably the only Agent, who is happy that the candidate is staying opt in. But then you are our own Dodgy

[Churchill]

I dont care what he does as long as he does something.
