Governance
NES Fircroft has dedicated compliance and risk personnel based in 6 locations: UK, USA, Australia, Malaysia, UAE, and Norway, our geographical spread ensures we fully understand the intricacies of regional legislation and can support our clients and contractors to ensure compliance and minimise risk wherever their project may be.
Compliance
NES Fircroft carries out monthly contractual compliance auditing and reporting, which means we can confidently claim to be contractually compliant in the month that the contractor is placed and using this approach we have maintained a staggering rate of over 99% compliance, month on month since 2015, which we believe is unsurpassed in the industry.
Quality
We use ISO9001 as the mechanism to assess the effectiveness of our systems and practices, and to verify that our compliance provisions have been met, continue to be achieved and are subject to review and improvement.
Originally certified to ISO9001 in 1994, we have since expanded on our commitment to applying industry standards and assurances by incorporating the ISO standards for Environmental Management and Occupational Health & Safety Management. Requirements of these standards are transposed to our policy and operational practices, and business operations then audited for compliance.
Our Integrated Management System serves to communicate expectations, establish controls and foster a culture of excellence, along with providing assurances to stakeholders of our continued commitment to meeting needs and expectations.
Privacy & Security
Our strategy continues to act as a reference point for NES Fircroft governance, compliance and improvement controls linked to our data processing and data protection practices.
We acknowledge the trust placed in us by applicants when sharing their personal data and we will never take that for granted, but instead strive to ensure we utilise it in an exemplary manner to secure positive outcomes for our candidates.
We are fully committed to ensuring the security, confidentiality, and integrity of the information individuals share with us; our approach to data protection and security encompasses:
- Implementing control measures that, as a minimum, meet the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
- Ensuring that all personal data is processed lawfully, transparently, and securely.
- Ensuring individual’s rights are respected and protected, employing robust mechanisms to manage data requests, including where appropriate consent.
- Applying appropriate governance on data processing activities across global locations, in line with risk, impact and opportunity.
- Aligning cybersecurity practices with the Centre for Internet Security (CIS) Controls, a globally recognised framework designed to protect against the most prevalent cyber threats.
- Implementing a comprehensive set of controls to prevent unauthorised access, detect potential breaches, and respond swiftly to any security incidents.
- Embedding a culture of awareness for the protection of personal data and company confidential information;
- Establishing criteria for monitoring our performance in relation to data protection governance, reviewing information and results for adequacy and seeking continual improvement.
