Your working environment as an umbrella employee
You should be able to work safely and feel well. As your employer, we are responsible for your working environment, and when you work at a client’s premises we share this responsibility with the client.
Before the assignment
Think through the risks in the assignment: heavy lifting, working at height, lone working, machinery or chemicals. Ask the client about induction and safety rules. Do not accept assignments that require training or authorisation you do not have.
At the client’s premises
The client is responsible for the workplace and must give you the instructions and protective equipment you need, just as for other hired-in staff. If you work in a private home or choose your own workplace, you need to check yourself that it is safe.
Working hours
Follow the Swedish Working Hours Act (arbetstidslagen): normally no more than 40 hours a week and enough rest between shifts.
If something happens
Tell us and the client on the same day if you are injured, become ill or experience a near miss (tillbud). We report work injuries to Försäkringskassan and serious incidents to Arbetsmiljöverket. Email info@scaleaccounting.se.
Mistreatment
If you are mistreated or discriminated against on an assignment, tell us straight away. We take it seriously and help you.
