| Tiivistelmä: | This article examines the training disadvantages faced by contingent labour based on a postal questionnaire of the UK construction industry in 2002. It investigates if the provision of training is different for directly employed labour and different forms of contingent labour, and the structural and organisational factors shaping the provision of training to different contingent labour forms. It seems that fewer firms provide training for agency, self-employed and subcontract labour, compared to directly employed workers. Additionally, training for subcontract labour reflects a longer-term perspective towards the use of this labour form, while decisions to train agency and self-employed labour appear to be driven by more short-term considerations. |
