Red tape challenge 'will boost employment'

The government's commitment to reducing the amount of red tape facing UK businesses will help to boost job creation across the UK, including the hiring of sales recruitment candidates, it has been claimed.

According to the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC), the coalition's new 'Red Tape Challenge' policy confirms a broader campaign to "cut unnecessary bureaucracy" and create jobs across all sectors.

Tom Hadley, the REC's director of policy and professional services, said there is a need to remove "lingering barriers to growth" and help stimulate the economy, which in turn will lead to an increase in country-wide recruitment.

"We will continue to make the case for measures that would lighten the load for recruiters. For example, a fundamental review of the Conduct Regulations should be considered," he added.

It comes after a report by EEF – the manufacturers' organisation showed that almost half of companies fear that frequent changes in regulation will make it increasingly difficult for them to achieve future flexibility, which is something the government needs to address.
