The REC Code of Good Recruitment Practice has been created in consultation with industry stakeholders to ensure that all members of the REC conduct their businesses ethically and to the highest standards and to promote good practice within REC membership.

The REC will offer guidance, legal advice and training to members to help achieve these standards. The Code is binding on all individual and corporate members of the REC and their subsidiary/associate companies. Where a member operates in a sector or sectors covered by the REC’s specialist division codes of practice, the requirements of the relevant code or codes are also binding. A breach of this Code or the specialist division codes will be dealt with under the Complaints and Disciplinary procedures of the REC.
