Yoh becomes first firm to achieve 6CATS Approved certification

Specialist technology staffing company, Yoh, has become the first firm to become 6CATS APPROVED, certifying that its contractor books are compliant across Europe.

Launched earlier this year, the accreditation provides staffing companies with a compliance seal of approval that shows end-hirers that the agency is serious about remaining on the right side of international legislation.

Yoh have been engaged with 6CATSPRO for several years to ensure the firm has a robust compliance process as it expanded across Europe. As a long-standing partner, the firm was able to complete the audit swiftly.

Simon Claridge, Managing Director of European Operations at Yoh, commented:

Recruitment agencies are moving into a new world, and we all have to ensure we take ownership of compliance processes for our customers. The international tax and compliance landscape and the nuances across countries is complex. There are also so many more working, employment and contract models and solutions now that you have to be truly engaged to remain compliant. This accreditation ensures that we do that and also shows to customers that they’re not at risk, which is what many firms are worrying about at the moment.”

Jon Clarke, Managing Director of 6CATSPRO added:

Yoh has a growing global footprint that has the potential to expose the firm to compliance risks. Our partnership with them means we have been able to audit the business swiftly as they have a long-standing commitment to managing compliance, meaning all the information required was readily available. I’m delighted to be able to announce that they are the first firm to be 6CATS APPROVED certified. Having this recognised badge of compliance has benefits beyond mitigating business risks – it also helps a firm’s competitive positioning, demonstrating to end-clients that it is committed to safeguarding its business, clients and candidates.”
