Fergus Stoddart’s Post

THE RECRUITMENT REVOLUTION BEGINS.... 🔥 When I set up Valued Recruitment three years ago, my goal was to shake up recruitment as we know it. I wanted to represent every job-seeker out there, not just those that fit into the 'traditional narrative' that we've be peddling since the beginning of time. This week, one of our policies have been adopted by Marvel FMCG - Certified B Corporation®; another maverick in the recruitment space. They've pledged to recruit a FREE cover for any of their placements who take parental leave within the first 6 months of employment. YESSSSS. 🙌 THIS is what revolution feels like and I'm sure this is only the beginning. 🔥 Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting Charity People's Seema Choudhury, Kevin Croasdale & Katharine Tinker-Switzer; other maverick recruiters who are challenging the status quo. It feels like the tide is finally turning in the recruitment space. 🌊 Who'll be next to join the revolution? #Recruitment #InclusiveHiring #EthicalRecruitment #FlexibleWorking

The high rates of unemployment and recidivism among these individuals highlight the critical importance of facilitating their access to gainful and stable employment. Research shows that 89% of those who recidivate were unemployed at the time of re-arrest, underscoring the pivotal role of employment in reducing recidivism rates. - - - If you are not a member of HR.com, you will be prompted to create a free profile at www.hr.com.
