Toolkit provides employers with best practice advice and guidance on how to hire quickly, fairly, and safely in the hospitality industry.
The Disclosure and Barring Service, in collaboration with the Better Hiring Institute, has launched a free-to-use industry best practice Better Hiring Toolkit for the hospitality sector.
Helping hospitality businesses hire staff
The new toolkit provides practical and simplified guidance to support hospitality businesses with hiring new employees by utilising UK best practice.
It provides advice on vetting potential new recruits, including checking and verifying their qualifications, as well as information for employers on their obligations when it comes to issues like modern slavery.
The toolkit provides guidance for employers and highlights how incorporating basic checks into recruitment practices can be a tool to build trust, safety, and reliability across the workforce.
Access the toolkit
Those responsible for recruitment within hospitality organisations are being used to download, implement, and share the toolkit within the hiring community.
