A workplace that the employee attends regularly for the
performance of the duties of the employment is a permanent
workplace unless it is a temporary workplace, see
EIM32065. A temporary workplace is a
workplace to which the employee goes only to perform a task of
limited duration or for a temporary purpose.
An employee may attend a workplace regularly and perform
duties there that are not of limited duration without that
workplace becoming a permanent workplace, provided that the purpose
of each visit is temporary.
Where a visit is self-contained (that is, arranged for a
particular reason rather than as part of a series of visits to the
same workplace for the continuation of a particular task) it is
likely to be for a temporary purpose.
