Grosvenor Nursing commitment to those seeking quality and honesty

The Guild of Quality Employment Agencies has created a model for recruitment agencies to follow, standardising minimum expectations around recruitment and compliance standards as well as customer service expectations. By attempting to streamline and instil minimum standards – the GQEA seal of approval is one that customers and candidates can trust and come to recognise as added value in Grosvenor Nursing.

Many recruitment sectors are still unregulated, and the provision of staff or services provided by staff fall on the recruitment business itself to set their own rules around compliance and service levels. This can make it a daunting process for clients and candidates. The GQEA code of conduct and seal of approval serve as a commitment to those seeking quality and honesty within the industry.
