EXPERT ADVICE ON THE AGENCY WORKER REGULATIONS – FREE SEMINARS

Wednesday 22^nd & Thursday 23^rd September 2010 and Thursday 14th October

The new regulations derive from European legislation designed to give temporary agency workers parity in pay and employment conditions as they would have been entitled to had they been recruited by the end user directly to do the same job. However, the new coalition government is currently reviewing the regulations and the full impact of the AWR cannot be fully assessed until this is complete.

Be the first to know how this will impact on your use of flexible workers by attending our free seminars. You and your business will benefit from:

An up to date explanation of the regulations and their potential impact on your business

Practical systems that can be put in place to meet equal treatment requirements

The opportunity to give your feedback on issues effecting your business and your use of agency workers

Advice on limiting risks and eliminating the chance of any tribunals

A free toolkit with implementation guidance and timelines

An opportunity to network with other employers and share best practice

AINT NO CHALLENGE BIG ENOUGH FOR THE HALES TEAM

On 13^th July, Donna Hurricks, Account Co-ordinator of our Lowestoft branch completed a tandem sky dive with the Red Devils from 13,000 feet. She was free falling for 45 seconds but the experience lasted for a total of 6 minutes. Donna completed the challenge to show support to a friend who is currently serving as a Marine in Afghanistan, in total she raised over £500 for Help the Hero’s.

On 16/17^th July, Kirsty Parker, Assistant Branch Manager of our Thetford branch completed the Trailwalker Challenge, hiking a magnificent 100km in 25 hours and 35 minutes over the South Downs to Brighton (with no sleep!). With the help of her 3 team mates she raised £2500 for Oxfam and the Ghurka Welfare Trust. The Ghurka's themselves ran the whole way and completed it in 10 hours 30 minutes but we won’t hold that against Kirsty!

RECENT SURVEY REINFORCES BENEFITS OF USING AN AGENCY TO GET THE RIGHT CANDIDATES

A recent survey has found a record 32 people are applying for every job in London on average, more than three times the amount for any other region. Employers in the North East, North West, South East (including East Anglia) and West Midlands share the second highest rate, receiving an average of nine applications for every job, the report by Totaljobs.com found. Northern Ireland-based employers have the lowest number of candidates per job, with just four applications for every vacancy registered on average, despite a 54pc increase in the number of jobs available in three months to June compared to the first quarter of the year.

Clients are increasingly turning to professional employment agencies to ensure that they access the most appropriate candidates with the necessary skills to perform their roles. Hales Group work with their clients to maximise applications to their roles and use a variety of on and off line methods to attract interest from the passive job seeker who may not have put their CV in the public domain but places trust in the confidentiality of a service such as that provided by Hales Group.
