The AWR are due to be implemented next October and the REC is now getting ready to launch a wide-ranging support programme to help recruitment agencies and business leaders prepare for the legislation.
The UK recruitment sector needs to be on the lookout for opportunities during the economic recovery, according to an economist from Barclays Corporate.
The REC is holding a series of regional workshops around the country to help its members understand how the Agency Workers Regulations will impact their business.
De Poel, the temporary procurement agency, says that industry ambassadors and the British press need to get their facts right in light of rumours that the coalition government intends to water down some of the Agency Workers Regulations.
