TIB Services Achieves REC Audited Education Status

What it Means To be awarded REC Audited Education

The REC Audited Education status verifies that TIB Services Ltd’s policies and procedures are in accordance with the Employment Agencies Act, the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003, the REC Code of Professional Practice and safeguarding practices in relation to children.

For TIB, this means our recruitment processes and procedures have been independently assessed against recognised standards, providing reassurance that we operate with professionalism, compliance and safeguarding at the forefront. 

The REC drives standards and empowers recruitment businesses to build better futures for their candidates and themselves. As champions of an industry that is fundamental to the strength of the UK economy, the REC helps promote high standards across the recruitment sector.

For educational establishments, this provides an additional level of confidence when choosing a recruitment partner. It demonstrates that our commitment to excellence extends beyond the candidates we provide and into the processes behind our recruitment.
