MK Personnel Solutions ensure legislative compliance to;

The Equality Act 2010

The Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006

Disclosure and Barring Service

National Minimum Wage

The Equality Act 2010 ensures the legal protection of people from discrimination in both the workplace and wider society. It sets out the different ways in which it is unlawful to treat someone such as on the grounds of age, sex and ethnicity.

The Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006 places on employer’s full legal responsibility to ensure all new staff recruited are eligible to work in the UK. Failure to follow the fact can result in substantial penalties for employing unauthorised migrant workers.

Replacing the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA), The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) ensures employers make safe and informed recruitment decisions to stop inappropriate people working with vulnerable groups such as children.

Set by Government and review regularly, the National Minimum Wage sets the minimum amount workers must get paid on average for the hours they work. Worked out differently for different age groups, failure to comply can carry a penalty of up to £20,000.

Agency Worker Regulations

Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974

Data Protection Act 2018 and GDPR

Employment Agencies Act 1973

Introduced in 2011, the Agency Workers Regulation (AWR) ensures agency workers are not treated differently to permanent employees in regard to paying and working conditions after 12 weeks of service in the same job. It also ensures they receive equal access to permanent employee facilities and opportunities.

Created in 1974, the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 allows people with convictions to be reintegrated into society by having the right to legally ignore their conviction after a period of time. The Act allows cautions, convictions, final warning and reprimands to respect of a certain offence to be considered ‘spent’ after a specified period of time.

Controlling how personal and private information is used by organisations and businesses, the Data Protection Act and GDPR, imposes strict rules on how such data is used, collated, stored and shared. It gives the owners of the data greater powers to request to see the information held on them plus to amend inaccuracies or ask for its complete removal.

The Employment Agencies Act 1973 regulates the conduct of employment agencies which recruit and manage temporary and permanent labour. It ensures the welfare of candidates who use such agencies to find work and present such agencies from acting illegally such as charging registration fees or advertising no existent jobs.
