REC Response to Prime Minister’s Comments on Recruitment Overseas
Press releases
Tuesday 29th July 2014
Commenting on allegations made by the Prime Minister’s today that some recruiters are advertising exclusively overseas and the publication of a new consultation to amend the Conduct Regulations to prohibit such behaviour, the REC CEO Kevin Green said:
“Any discriminatory practice in this area must be stopped and we will work with BIS on this consultation and with all government departments and political parties to uncover and address any evidence of such behaviour.
“Recruiters’ focus is helping people find rewarding jobs. Recruitment agencies have tens of thousands of people walking through their doors looking for work every day and last year helped over 600,000 people in Britain find a new permanent job.”
