de Poel gets tighter on candidate information

Temporary worker registration enhanced ahead of AWR implementation in October

de Poel, the number one procurer of temporary agency labour in the UK, has increased compliance checks during the registration of temporary workers to help improve security and reduce administration for recruitment agencies. The move, which includes the compulsory registration of a passport or national insurance number, will remove human error in checking a valid passport and provide the ability to track a temporary agency worker whilst on assignment.

The move comes ahead of the introduction of the Agency Workers Regulations (AWR) that will see this information a necessity in complying with the regulation due to be enforced from October 2011.

Performing compliance checks can put an increased administration burden on consultants and relies on their knowledge of legitimate passports. However the new function on de Poel’s e-tips® system, the leading web-based timesheet and invoice processing system, will put a stop to the minefield of checks and remove the human error factor by once again using technology to improve efficiencies and of course compliance.
