Temporary work is short-term employment where the worker may be under contract for a set period of time or for an on-going contract. Often brought in to fill a role or position within a workplace, temporary working is a good way to gain employment and experience in a specialist travel sector.

As a temp, you are covered by the national minimum wage, working time legislation, health and safety and some social security provisions.

People coming to work in UK temporarily need to check whether they need a work permit and/or a visa to work. Workers from EU countries have more rights to live and work in the UK than those from elsewhere.
