“Response Personnel committing to implement Voluntary Code of Practice on Employing Migrant Workers”

The Voluntary Code of Practice on Employing Migrant Workers/Overseas staff in Great Britain has been the brainchild of the Prince’s Rural Action Programme and Business in the Community.  The code is to help guide and reinforce best practice in the recruitment and employment of migrant workers.

Response Personnel are pleased to announce that after attending the launch of the Voluntary Code of Practice, we have signed to commit to continue implementing the following within our business.

 -Behaving ethically in recruitment practices

-Overseeing and assisting with suitable travel and accommodation arrangements

-Treating migrant workers fairly and equitably in relation to other employees

-Helping migrant workers settle and integrate into their host community

-Providing for the needs of those who speak little or no English

-Ensuring that the basic cultural needs of minority people are met

-Preventing and addressing the racial discrimination and harassment in the workplace

Along with our REC membership, Gangmasters Licence, Association of Labour Providers membership and now our commitment to the Code of Practice, we are ensuring that Response Personnel are totally committed to providing a fair, legal and ethical service to our clients and candidates.
