This Section applies to agency workers who may not otherwise meet the definition of "worker" and may not otherwise be treated as having a "worker’s contract".
	Subsection (1) sets out that this Section applies to the agency workers that meet the conditions in (a) to (c).
	Subsection (2) sets out that the provisions of this Chapter have effect as if there was a worker’s contract between the agency worker and either the agent or the principal, depending on which is responsible for paying the agency worker for their work or, if neither the agent nor the principal is responsible, which of them does in fact pay the agency worker in respect of the work.
	Subsection (3) operates so that where a worker’s contract is deemed to exist under this section, the agency worker is regarded as a worker for the purposes of Part 2 of the ERA 1996 and a worker’s contract is deemed to exist for the purposes of that worker bringing a claim in an employment tribunal under that Part in relation to the entitlements conferred by sections 44(2) and 45(5).
	Subsection (4) operates so that where a worker’s contract is deemed to exist under this Section between an agency worker and their agent or principal, it is also deemed to exist for the purpose of the worker bringing a claim for breach of contract in the civil courts in order to enforce the entitlement conferred on them by Sections 44(2) and (3), and 45(5) and (6).
