 Employed for PAYE but have to pay for training and occy health
My wife is a locum eho is employed by an agency (for PAYE) she works solely for the agency, and actually solely for one hospital.
As a non pharmacist but an employee I find it strange that my wife should have to attend compulsory training on H&S etc provided by the agency but be unpaid and unexpensed. The latest though is that she is having to pay for a range of occupational health checks eg for measles, involving blood tests etc so not just a form filling jobby. This seems wrong.
Is she an employee or not? Surely this is a legitimate business expense that the agency should re-imburse her for just as my company pays for my petrol or biros?
Perhaps I need an employment lawyer.
