lpv:translated text	". My concern when voting was primarily with the protection of Dutch legislation dating from 1999, which intends to put temporary work on a more equal footing with normal work and to protect against abuses. Without such legislation, employers can take advantage of temporary workers and rob groups of employees of their basic security, pay them lower wages, offer them less say, force them to work under worse conditions, make early dismissal possible or break strikes of others. The intention is to create dependency by preventing people from moving on to permanent positions at the businesses that originally hired them. Temporary work is admissible only if it is a free choice on the part of the people involved, albeit in the service of the temping agency, and if they have all the normal rights of employees. The two largest groups have reached a compromise that prevents the more far-reaching protection that my group has proposed. Despite this, Dutch employers are trying to persuade their counterparts in other Member States and the Right-wing section in this Parliament to reject even this minimum level of protection and to ensure that the rules are either rejected or relaxed. In doing so, they are hoping to cut costs and increase temporary work. I can only vote in favour if they are frustrated in what they seek to do."@en1
