Candidate Guidelines

(1) REGISTRATION :
There is a TT$50.00 registration fee, payable when you arrive for an interview. This fee is not refundable, and is not a guarantee of employment. Please be advised that your application will not be processed until the registration fee has been paid. You will be issued with a receipt for this payment.


(2) TEMPORARY & SHORT TERM ASSIGNMENTS :
Salaries will be issued as crossed cheques only. There are no exceptions to this.
Regency will pay your salary once we have been paid by the client for the work you have done. Clients are expected to pay within 7 days of the work being completed.
Statutory Deductions : National Insurance, PAYE and Health Surcharge will be deducted from all salaries and calculated on your earnings, according to Board of Inland Revenue, National Insurance Board and other related legal guidelines.
You will be paid only for actual hours worked (you will be advised of your hourly rate of pay before the work begins). This does not include time taken for lunch. Please note that the standard hourly rate will apply, unless overtime rates have been specified by the client, in which case you will also be advised. Overtime will normally apply if more than 40 hours are worked in a five day period.

(3) PERMANENT & CONTRACT WORK :
In most instances once you are employed for a contract or permanent job with one of our clients, the client will pay your salary and therefore be responsible for all deductions. On some occasions Regency will pay your monthly salary and if so, we will endeavor to pay you on or before the last working day of the month. (Please see (2) iii for details of statutory deductions.)
Regency will not make any deductions, other than those required by law from your salary should we place you in a contract job.


(4) PERFORMANCE & CONFIDENTIALITY GUIDELINES :
Regency Recruitment abides by the employment legislation of Trinidad and Tobago as issued by the Ministry of Labor & Cooperatives. Should these laws change in such a way so as to affect any of the above operational guidelines, we will adhere to the new legislation.
Though we will always inform you of changes as soon as we are able to, Regency reserves the right to change these guidelines without prior notice to candidates.
Regency Recruitment reserves the right to withdraw any candidate from employment, whether temporary or permanent, should your performance, skills, attitude or ethics be considered unsatisfactory and not in the best interest of Regency or our clients.
As part of our standard operating procedure, we will check at least two professional references on each applicant. (Please be advised that this is not an indication that we have found you employment.)
Confidentiality is of the utmost importance in all jobs. When working for one of our clients, you are required not to discuss or disclose, in any manner or to any other party, the affairs, interests or dealings of the client or Regency. Any information you may be exposed to is to be kept confidential at all times. Failure to do so will result in your removal from the clients premises, as well as immediate and irreversible cancellation of your working agreement with Regency Recruitment.
Please be advised that registration with Regency Recruitment is not a guarantee of employment.


(5) IMPORTANT INFORMATION :
Please notify your consultant, by telephone, email or in writing of changes in your name, address, phone number or work situation. Remember that you will be employed and paid by Regency so please keep in touch.
Confine your personal calls to your own time and phone. When on assignment, leave the Regency number (868-625-6225) with your family for emergency calls so we can contact you should the need arise.
To protect your privacy please do not give the client your home address and phone number. Tell the client to contact you through Regency.
You are a Regency employee. Please do no accept or approach our clients for permanent positions without authorization from Regency. Should you be offered permanent work please inform your Regency consultant.
Call your Regency consultant if you are unable to report to an assignment or interview, are unable to work for any reason, or require time off. Please allow us to relay the message - do not call the client yourself. Also if there are any problems whilst on assignment, do not discuss them with the client but talk to your Regency consultant.


Our success as a good service company depends on your performance .
You are our Sales Representative. A satisfied customer means future
business for Regency and more work for you, so be flexible, ask for
extra responsibility when appropriate and generally be as helpful
and professional as we know you can be.
