Best Practice

REC Code of Practice
The REC Code of Professional Practice has been created in consultation with members and industry stakeholders to ensure that all members of the REC conduct their businesses ethically, to the highest standards and to promote good practice within REC membership. It is binding on all Corporate Members.  Members of the REC's Institute of Recruitment Professionals must adhere to the Institute Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct.

Promoting Standards

The REC accepts complaints and queries in regards to the standards of best practice by our members. It is a condition of membership that a member agency has in place a Complaints Procedure to deal with complaints.
