INTENTIONALLY

MAKING A DIFFERENCE

Kenect was incorporated in Rugeley in the middle of the UK recession. The sole intention of starting the business was to help people get back into work and build themselves a bright future, as well as to helping local businesses grow with the right employees. After two years we accomplished just that and decided to branch out to offer our services in other towns and cities.

By knowing each of our markets, our highly motivated team work tirelessly to provide each client with a truly unique tailor made service. It is through our people that we continue to achieve successful business relationships. It is is essential that we perpetuate our current business model which encourages contribution and growth by delivering clear and honest direction.

Quality is at the core of everything we do. Whenever clients or candidates use our services, they benefit from our investment in developing people, our compliant processes as well as our extensive knowledge and expertise. Our rigorous internal business systems are also some of the most advanced in recruitment.

Our internal intranet system has recently been nominated for some top awards. This system supports our internal staff and supplies them with all the tools they need to be successful and run their offices efficiently.

Investment is key. Weather its investing time with our internal staff to develop their skill set to progress or investing funds to offer services that makes our clients jobs a lot easier. We always look to invest where we can across the board.

CERTIFIED AND FULLY COMPLIANT

SO HOW DO WE DEAL WITH COMPLIANCE?

All our recruiters have a dedicated CRM system which ultimately controls their day to day activities, the working plan and all compliance which is updated daily with any new legislation changes.

This system enables us to create a pool of compliant candidates which are then monitored by our compliance team and in branch consultants. Every candidate that registers for work is thoroughly vetted and must pass our compliance criteria before being placed into an assignment within CRM. Talent pooling is about finding a platform and building a community which is something Kenect specialises in.

GDPR COMPLIANCE

All Kenect Staff have undertaken GDPR awareness training. We have updated our data protection policy and rolled them out. We have obtained consent from all candidates, those that we’ve unsuccessfully not been able to contact have been deleted permanently from our systems. We have ensured all staff members are fully aware of the steps that need to be taken if a data breach happens and we have tight response processes in place should this occur. We have also updated our CRM and our cloud storage facilities to comply with the new regulation. Our systems are monitored by our compliance team who take direction from our legal team on any changes to legislation.
