The Ethical Framework for Cross Border Labour Recruitment offers a set of specific operational practices (“Standards of Ethical Practice”) for recruitment firms that operate across borders. These practices are reinforced by a Verification and Certification system to document compli- ance and provide essential information to third parties and potential business partners.
