REC Campaigns 

As the professional body for recruitment we’re determined to make businesses more successful by helping them secure the people they need. As the voice of the industry, we campaign on behalf of the UK’s recruitment industry and represents recruiters’ views at the highest levels of government.

This work is focused around three key strands:

• Creating the right economic climate – we want to see taxation which is fit for purpose and encourages investment and job creation. In the public sector, efficiencies and savings must be delivered without reducing service to the public.
  
• Removing barriers to growth - businesses can drive growth and create employment if the regulatory environment is supportive. The government must remove barriers to growth by simplifying regulation and by championing the UK’s flexible labour market.
  
• Delivering opportunity and jobs - our labour market is open, dynamic and flexible which provides our economy with an international advantage. We must nurture this by building a highly skilled workforce and by harnessing the contribution of recruitment professionals in providing guidance for jobseekers.
