Now that the early Parliamentry General Election Act 2019 has today recieved Royal Assent and an election called for 12th December we make an early plea to recognise Recruitment’s contribution when drawing up manifestos. The UK recruitment industry has survived the recession and continues to play a critical role in helping businesses and organisations find the talent, skills and resource they need to grow. The sector has contributed to making our labour market the envy of many countries; creating jobs and keeping unemployment much lower than forecast. With the coming election we are calling on Politicians to hold back on further regulation and recognise that the recruitment industry is a significant contributor to economic growth and job creation and allow it play its part unhindered.
