Terms & conditions

Terms of Business for the introduction of staff to be directly employed by Clients
(Permanent Staff)

1. These Terms and Condition of Business are between Jobs in Transport Ltd (hereinafter called the Employment Business) and the Employer Client, hereinafter called the Client and are deemed to be accepted by the Client by virtue of the engagement (which term includes employment or use, whether under a contract of service or for services or under an agency, license, franchise or partnership agreement) of an applicant introduced by the Employment Business to the Client including any member of the Employment Business’s own staff.

2. The Client agrees:

a) To notify the Employment Business immediately an engagement is accepted and

b) To pay the fee of the Employment Business, within 14 days of the invoice date.  The Employment Business reserves the right to make a surcharge to the Client of 3% for each period of 28 days of delayed payment.

3) All period of credit shall cease and the whole of any amount invoiced and all the accounts due under any contract between the Employment Business and the Client shall become immediately due and payable, if any of the following occur:-

(i) The Client defaults in payment of any account on the due date.

(ii) The Client ceases or threatens to cease to carry on trading or calls a meeting to pass a resolution of a winding up or if a Receiver of any of the Client’s assets is appointed or if a winding up petition is presented.

4) The fee payable to the Employment Business by the Client for the introduction of an applicant is calculated as set out below, and is based on the gross remuneration which the applicant is entitled to earn during the first twelve months of their employment with the Client.  Remuneration includes all salary payments and other taxable emoluments (including benefits in kind) payable to or receivable by the applicant for services rendered to or on behalf of the Client.  VAT will be charged in addition to the fee.

5) Should the relevant employment terminate before the expiry of 28 days, (except as a result of the applicant being made redundant by the Client), the fee will be rebated in accordance with the Scale of Rebate set out below, provided that the Client notifies the Employment Business in writing within seven days of the termination of employment and has paid the Employment Business’s fee within fourteen days of the date of invoice. If after the offer of engagement has been accepted by the applicant, the Client, for whatever reason decides not to proceed with the appointment, it shall be liable to pay a minimum fee of £500.  Should the Client or any subsidiary or associated company of the Client subsequently re-engage the applicant within the period of six calendar months from the date of termination, a full fee in accordance with Paragraph 4 above becomes payable, with no entitlement to refund.

6) Introductions are confidential. The passing on of an introduction to another employer which results in an engagement renders the Client liable to payment of the Employment Business’s fee as set out in Paragraph 4.

7) An introduction fee calculated in accordance with Paragraph 4 of the terms will be charged in relation to any applicant engaged as a consequence or resulting from an introduction by or through the Employment Business, even though the introduction may be made indirectly, provided that the engagement takes place within 6 months from the introduction of the applicant to the Client.

8) The Employment Business endeavours to ensure the suitability of any applicant introduced to the Client.  The Client shall, not withstanding, satisfy himself as to the suitability of any applicant and shall take up any references provided by any applicant before engaging such applicant.  The Client shall be responsible for obtaining work and other permits, for the arrangement of medical examinations and /or investigations into the medical history of any applicant, and satisfy any medical and other requirements or qualifications required by law.  The Employment Business shall not be liable under any circumstances for any loss, damage or expense suffered or incurred by the Client arising from, or in any way connected with the Employment Business seeking an applicant for the Client, or the introduction by the Employment Business to the Client of any applicant, or the engagement of any applicant by the Client.

9) No variation can be made to these terms without the written consent of a Director of the Employment Business.
