Many sectors of the economy have seen the end of the era of light-touch regulation. Simply issuing guidelines and expecting businesses to follow them has proved wholly inadequate for curbing the worst excesses of companies and individuals.

The financial services sector, employment and the universal matter of data security are just three areas where light-touch processes have given way to stronger, more formally legislated regulatory frameworks. And regulatory bodies have been given increased powers, giving them the teeth to force compliance.

Recruitment and compliance

Recent years have seen the compliance burden for recruitment agencies increase significantly.

AWR may be specific to the UK, but many countries have toughened their stance on the employment status of migrant workers.

In the EU, free movement and the right to work is ‘passported’ by possession of an EU passport from a full member European Union state. However, workers from outside the EU are likely to have alternative and sometimes more complex forms of documentation for establishing the right to work.

The right to work may be one thing, but then there’s tracking qualifications, certifications and accreditations. On top of that, agencies acting in good faith may be caught out by candidates or agency workers presenting with falsified or stolen documents.

There can be a lot of information to be gathered, copied and filed for easy retrieval when it’s needed. There’s also the need to accurately track when documents expire. So, how do agencies get it right?
