Summary/Abstract: Private Employment Agencies became a reality on the global labour market, and temporary work represents their most significant part. On the international level, legal status of these agencies is regulated through the Convention No. 181 on Private Employment Agencies which has been ratified by 29 countries so far, including the Republic of Serbia. European Union adopted Agency Work Directive 2008/104, and member states implemented its provisions into their respective legal systems. Temporary agency work has become the most significant form of labour engagement of people who are willing to work. Very important issue is related to a principle of equal treatment of the workers hired through the private employment agencies, in terms that they must have the same legal status as the regular employees. Mostly, the scope and status of private employment agencies in various countries is regulated by the Law. It can be a Labour Code, or some other special law on private agencies for employment, or finally, in some countries, and only few of them, scope and status of private employment agencies can be regulated by the Employment Law. A partnership should be established between private agencies for employment and public employment services. Public employment services should never have a monopoly in this field. The Republic of Serbia should, in near future, regulate the status of private agencies for employment in Labour Code.
