ABX Recruitment Terms of Business for Temporary Recruitment

ABX recruitment aims to provide you with a valuable service to enhance your business.  We like to keep things simple and easy to understand, so here is a summary of the information you need and what you agree to, when you use us. (Contact us to request a copy of our full Terms of Business).

Temporary Placement Fee Structure

What your fees include

Our placement fees include general on-line advertising and database searches, interviewing and referencing, where possible, and administrative fees.

What they don’t include

Your placement fee does not include newspaper or media advertising or travel and related costs.  This will be agreed with you prior to commencing the work. Due to the short-notice nature of temp assignments, reference checks may not always be possible.

How and when do you need to pay us?

We have a scale of fees applying to temporary work, normally paid per hour and invoiced weekly.  No replacement guarantee is applicable for temporary work although we will always endeavour to replace candidates where we can.

What is the benefit of using us exclusively?

Using us exclusively makes sense!  You are buying our time and exclusivity means that we dedicate 100% of our effort to your assignment as we are not vying with a pool of other agencies or sources which may, or may not, lead to a placement.  You also receive a special discount if you do this as our costs can be higher with non-exclusive work.  If you use us exclusively, i.e. you do not advertise or seek candidates yourselves or use any other agency, you pay a discounted fee per assignment.  If we do not find the right people for you within 48 hours, you may switch to a non-exclusive arrangement for the same fee.

Non–exclusive Assignments

If you decide to use us non-exclusively you pay a higher rate per assignment.

Any candidates referred to the client either verbally or in writing will remain candidates of ABX Recruitment for a period of 12 months from the date of the initial introduction.
