With little information available on the different backgrounds of people working within recruitment in the UK, the Association of Professional Staffing Companies (APSCo) and the Recruitment & Employment Confederation (REC) are collaborating on a project to better understand the sector’s diversity landscape. The team at Pearl Group UK have submitted our response via our accredited board REC.

Individuals and businesses have until 31 March to complete the relevant survey about what they see and experience currently in terms of diversity & inclusion in the recruitment community. “To be able to measure the impact of driving the D&I agenda, we need a clearer view of where the sector is starting from,” a statement about the project said.

No personal data will be collected in the surveys.
