The REC will continue it’s whistle-stop tour of the UK next week when it visits recruiters and umbrella companies based in the south of England.
The ‘On The Road’ UK tour has been set-up as part of an on-going plan by the REC to better educate it’s members about the issues facing recruitment in this country, and how they can prepare themselves for the challenges that lie ahead.
One of the items that will be discussed next week is forthcoming implementation of the Agency Workers Directive, which seeks to give temporary workers certain employment rights after 12 weeks of work. The workshops will unveil a new range of products and services developed by the REC to assist it’s members with AWD compliance, and in particular how they can streamline administration when dealing with PAYE umbrella companies and paying clients.
Chief executive of the REC, Kevin Green, will host Q&A sessions in both Brighton and Southampton, which will also tackle subjects such as employment law and the wider economy. There are still places available for the Southampton event and bookings can be made via the REC’s website.
