The Association of Labour Providers (ALP) is a specialist trade association for labour providers promoting responsible recruitment, to ensure the provision, use and management of labour is recognised as a model of good practice. ALP has a range of members, from the largest national employment businesses to small local providers servicing the consumer goods supply chain across the food processing, horticultural and wider manufacturing, industrial, warehousing and distribution sectors. All organisations in the supply chain are welcomed as Associate Members. The ALP’s aim is for “The provision of temporary labour to the UK consumer goods supply chain to be a model of good practice” We achieve this through: • Raising Standards - improving standards of labour provision beyond base compliance. • Promoting Growth - raising awareness of labour providers’ contribution to supply chain efficiency. • Responsibility to workers – supporting labour providers and users to meet their legal and ethical responsibilities. • Sustainable Supply - facilitating the definition and application of fair pay and charge rates that enable business sustainability. • Proportionate Regulation – advocating proportionate regulation of labour provision that facilitates fair competition. • Sector Support – Championing the work of labour providers ALP has also developed two ground-breaking and complementary initiatives to support responsible recruitment: - The Responsible Recruitment Toolkit (www.responsiblerecruitmenttoolkit.org), a practical online resource base to build businesses’ capacity to become responsible recruiters through step-by-step guidance, videos, resources and workshops. - Clearview (www.clearviewassurance.com), a pioneering certification scheme which independently verifies labour provider’s efforts to recruit responsibly.

The Regulatory Policy Committee (RPC) evaluated the UK government's Employment Rights Bill and found its Impact Assessment (IA) "not fit for purpose." Findings highlight fundamental deficiencies in the analytical underpinnings of the Employment Rights Bill. RPC calls for a deeper, more nuanced examination of the proposed measures to ensure that the Bill’s objectives—protecting workers and ensuring fair employment practices—do not inadvertently harm businesses or the broader economy. The government is urged to refine its approach to ensure balanced and evidence-led policymaking. https://lnkd.in/e5qDBJzX

Would you like to be our next boardroom apprentice? We're taking part in the UK Boardroom Apprentice programme as a host organisation and 2025 applications are open until 4pm on Monday 18th November. UK Boardroom Apprentice is a unique 12-month board learning, development and placement programme which enables those who would like to serve on a public or third sector board to learn and gain the experience that they need to take that step. Since its inception in 2017, the programme has seen 438 individuals across the UK embark on their Boardroom Apprentice journey. Open to those aged 18 or over from all backgrounds and all abilities, the programme seeks to enable a wider diversity of individuals to play their part within boardrooms, allowing those without board experience to enhance their knowledge and understanding through in-depth learning and support. Boardroom Apprentice prides itself on the support system in place for those taking part in the programme. Upon being assigned a host board, Boardroom Apprentices are paired with a Board Buddy who aids with their progression throughout the twelve-month experience, as well as being provided with a suite of learning days.
