At the British Council we use Adecco to fill our temporary staff vacancies. We have built a commitment to diversity - with specific reference to disability, ethnicity, gender and age - into their brief. We ask for quarterly reports that show the profile of all staff sent to us and annual analysis of this data is undertaken by an external EO monitoring specialist. On finding out that we were using Jobcentre Plus and their Disability Advisers to advertise British Council permanent external vacancies, Adecco have now developed a relationship with the Disability Advisers at Jobcentre Plus to explore ways to widen their pool of recruits. Like the British Council, Adecco are members of Employers' Forum on Disability and monitor the diversity of their own workforce as well as their clients'.
Jobs are now being advertised to a much wider pool which not only raises our profile in the UK but means we can potentially draw on a much more diverse pool of people. [i]
