How would the host company deal with disputes or cases where the work carried out by the secondee is not of the standard required?
The host can terminate the secondment at any time by giving the agreed length of notice. The companies involved are free to agree a trial period during which a shorter period of notice can be given to terminate the arrangement. Ideally the host company will want some kind of comfort that the secondee has the appropriate skills and ability before commencing the secondment. If the issue arises because the secondee has committed a disciplinary offence the host company should immediately inform the employer as it remains the employer’s responsibility to address disciplinary issues.
