This guide is written to assist all trade unionists, whether they are working at plant, local, regional, national or international level, with their daily work on contract and agency labour.

Many of the methods and practices that were used elsewhere may be adapted successfully to your situation. It is hoped that the “best practice” examples from around the world, including at the legal and at the international level,can serve as departure points for good ideas and actions at home, wherever you are, helping all to solve a few - and hopefully more - contract, agency and other precarious work problems.
