The REC Good Recruitment Campaign Purpose of the employers panel • Bringing together a group of HR, talent, procurement and business leaders to advise the REC and provide employer insight on the future of recruitment. The panel will provide a client’s perspective on current trends and the recruitment landscape over the next decade. This will be used by the REC to inform our research agenda and the advice we provide to our members
Charter Principles • Our recruitment procedures are fair and ethical, with specific regard to actively promoting diversity and inclusion within the workplace; • We will exercise recruitment best practice and apply this equally to temporary, contract, fixed-term, zero-hours and part-time workers; • The candidate experience delivered is of a high standard with on-going communication during the recruitment process including two way feedback for all those interviewed; • Flexible working arrangements and adaptive working packages are offered wherever possible as a way of boosting inclusion and attracting talent; • Those managing and delivering the recruitment process, whether internal staff or external providers, work to recognised standards having undertaken any relevant training/qualification and are committed to continuous development; • External recruitment providers are signed up to industry Codes of Practice and can demonstrate a commitment to best practice; • Recruitment best practice is ensured throughout the supply chain including where different resourcing models such as RPOs or vendor arrangements are in place; • Recruitment procedures help to address the challenge of youth unemployment, for example through the provision of apprenticeships and traineeships and by working with recruitment organisations who have signed up to the REC’s Youth Employment Charter; • Recruitment procedures are regularly reviewed and feedback sought from candidates and those appointed in order to determine the effectiveness of the attraction and selection processes. These are benchmarked against the latest research into resourcing best practice. Both methods are used to ensure recruitment process is continually improved.
