Supertemps achieves 100% REC compliance

We are delighted to announce that Supertemps has once again sailed through the Recruitment & Employment Confederation (REC) Compliance Test achieving a score of 100% this week.  “This is testament to our ongoing commitment to the highest standards of compliance and best practice within the recruitment industry” said Sarah Ellwood, Managing Director.

The REC Compliance Assessment is a rigorous examination of a recruitment agency’s adherence to legal and ethical responsibilities. Covering areas such as employment legislation, data protection, right to work checks, and client/candidate conduct, the test ensures that member agencies meet the REC’s stringent Code of Professional Practice. Scoring 100% confirms that Supertemps continues to operate at the highest level of professionalism, integrity, and legal compliance.

This outstanding result marks another success for Supertemps, reinforcing our reputation as one of the most trusted recruitment partners in North Wales and beyond. With more than four decades of industry experience, our focus has always been on providing clients and candidates with a dependable, transparent, and ethical service.

Why REC Compliance Matters

For clients, working with a fully compliant agency means peace of mind. You can be confident that your recruitment partner is fully up to date with current employment law and is committed to protecting your organisation’s reputation. For candidates, it ensures fair treatment, accurate representation, and lawful handling of your personal data.

By meeting and exceeding the REC’s compliance standards once again, Supertemps continues to demonstrate  dedication to supporting businesses and jobseekers with the utmost integrity.

A Team Effort

“Achieving a perfect score is no accident” commented Sarah.  “It reflects the hard work, diligence, and professionalism of our entire team” she continued.  “At Supertemps, compliance is not merely a tick-box exercise; it’s embedded in every part of our business. From initial candidate registration through to post-placement support, we ensure our processes are thorough, transparent, and in line with legal and ethical best practice”, she added.

“We would like to thank every member of our team who have to endure training, regular internal audits and compliance updates alongside doing their day jobs.  A recruiter’s role is extremely busy when done properly.”   

Looking Ahead

While we’re proud of our success, we’re not resting on our laurels. The recruitment landscape is constantly evolving, with new legislation, technologies, and challenges shaping how we operate. We remain committed to continuous improvement, ongoing training, and staying ahead of regulatory changes so we can provide the highest level of service.
