Document background
The Recruiting Agency Contract is essential for businesses operating in Canada that engage external recruitment services to fulfill their hiring needs. This agreement establishes the professional relationship between recruitment agencies and their client companies, defining the terms of engagement, service scope, and financial arrangements. It ensures compliance with Canadian federal and provincial employment laws, privacy regulations (PIPEDA), and human rights legislation. The contract typically covers candidate sourcing, screening, presentation processes, fee structures, placement guarantees, and confidentiality obligations. It's particularly crucial for protecting both parties' interests and establishing clear expectations regarding the recruitment process, successful placements, and associated fees.
