It is a requirement for employment businesses to provide a Key Information Document (K.I.D) to any temporary work-seekers they supply, either on a contract for services or via a limited company. The document sets out the essential information a work-seeker requires prior to starting an assignment. The aim is to promote transparency and accountability in the relationship between an employment business and a work seeker.
The requirement to provide a K.I.D is set out in The Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses (Amendment) Regulations 2019, which has amended the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003 to contain an additional regulation, 13A, which covers the K.I.D and what it needs to contain. These regulations came in to force on 6 April 2020 and it is now a requirement for employment businesses to provide a K.I.D to all work seekers.
