The REC means business - it has expelled 51 members as they did not complete the Compliance test on time.

 

Members are required to complete the REC Compliance Test when they join and on a two-year cycle after that. The test is an assessment of the rules and regulations that recruiters legally must follow, as well as the ethical principles contained in the REC's Code of Professional Conduct.

The organisation declined to provide to Recruiter the names of the businesses expelled.

 

"The Compliance Test is a key tool that helps us demonstrate that our members meet the right standards when running their business. The past 18 months have been extremely difficult, but our members have responded brilliantly, with only a few not completing the test in time," said Lorraine Laryea, recruitment standards director at the REC.

How are you acknowledged for your efforts........... 

Creative rewards are often tailor made to fit the employees passion or needs – these rewards could be a free trip to a winery, provision of care packages, and for the thrillseekers those could even be online casino credits and bonuses such as the Coral Casino Bonus.

 

Here are some examples:

*** Employees of a private bank in Switzerland get a month's worth of extra pay plus they also receive high-end perks like custom Mont Blanc pens and luxury chocolates worth thousands of dollars ***

 

*** One extravagant gift that a company gave its employees was a free culinary experience to Thailand. The staff members were flown to the exotic country and were brought to the most popular food places there. he entire team gets treated to trips to the top breweries and distilleries where they get to do beer tasting while enjoying a sumptuous meal ***

 

*** In another case, the employees get flown to a remote spa and get treated to massages and other wellness activities. They get to relax in the most serene and beautiful places so that they can come back to work refreshed ***

 

*** Some companies send their employees off to free ski trips or hot air balloon rides. Skydiving experiences are also becoming a popular choice of gift for the adrenaline-junkie at the office ***

 

*** One popular trend now is subscription boxes. The company signs their employees up for these and the staff member receives boxes of choice products every month. The subscription boxes can contain a multitude of things like designer coffee, grooming kits, ingredients to dishes that you can cook, snacks from all over the world, and more ***

 

*** Of course, many companies still give away the ever-reliable gift card. In fact, companies in the US spend over $24 billion on gift cards annually. These are used by their employees to buy whatever they need. Common choices for gift cards are the ones from Amazon, Etsy, GameStop, and other big stores. These are amazing gifts that let the employees choose their rewards. Some even get to use these to fund their online casino accounts ***

 

❓ How do you reward and recognise hard work and success with your employees ❓

Understanding your value and worth is integral to your self worth and important to know in a Candidate driven market we are currently experiencing.

 

*** Do you have a salary review coming up? Are you thinking of changing job? Are you worried that you're underpaid? ***

 

*** One way is to use Salary Checkers, Just enter your job title and location and they will show you the average salary plus the highest and lowest salaries for that position based on recent jobs adverts.

 

This website I find particularly good as it uses ONS data to source information and gives you example jobs being advertised with different key job facts:

*** In Recruitment, and want to make sure you are being valued for the work you do?

 

*** Our Assocaite Director is happy to have a confidential conversation with you, even if it is to just advise and make you aware of market rates at the moment, so you understand your value, or for preparation for a promotion meeting.
