The overall stats actually show a decrease of 8% in the actual number of claims that have been made this year but this is still up 44% compared to 2008-2009.
Over 3 years ago, networx worked alongside several clients who wished to adopt such a process and as a result have developed a highly effective solution that reflects the specific needs of businesses to support efforts to deliver a discrimination free recruitment process.

Sounds like wishful thinking to me - what industry wants is cheap labour that they can shed when not needed - hence the agencies and use of migrant labour. But, of course, someone is trying to sell you a system so you can appear to comply with legislation.
Hi Ken
The system was actually created by request from some of our Housing Association clients. By engaging them from the start our technology was built to reflect their specific processes and to support equality and diversity policies which they have in place. We currently have over 80 clients using this particular system.
Whilst cheap labour may be a leading priority for some I dont think it is for the majority. The Agency Workers Legislation will definitely have an impact on those who do tend to adopt this approach.
