Employers don't generally like employees having second jobs for this reason

"You get injured at work at your secondary employer" who is then responsible?

The regs also state that multiple jobs are aggregated. From gov.uk

There is a private members bill currently working its way through parliment that proposes some changes but I doubt if it will survive but its worth a read.

The regulations do not say that multiple jobs are aggregated (except for the exception noted by ohreally) and the link is to a potted law site from the government - not to the regulations themselves. The guidance states that multiple jobs ought to be aggregated. Guidance is neither law nor regulation. Guidance cannot be enforced in law.


Which is irrelevant really since the potential employer has said that they will comply with the guidance, and the OP cannot either force them not to.
