Employment Agencies in the Spotlight: Equity and Others v Talent Systems Europe Limited (t/a Spotlight)
本文分析了一起关于娱乐业表演者信息平台是否构成法律意义上的“职业介绍所”的英国高等法院判例,认为法院判决有误,并探讨了该案对劳动力市场中中介角色的广泛影响。
ABSTRACT This note considers the recent case of Spotlight. The case concerned the legal status of a platform providing information on performers in the entertainment industry. The High Court concluded that it was not an ‘employment agency'. The note argues that Spotlight was wrongly decided, and that the platform is an ‘employment agency’ as defined under the relevant legislation. This has broader implications for the role of intermediaries in labour markets.
