The Association of Compliance Organisations

The Association of Compliance Organisations (ASCOR) is a group of UK compliance organisations set up to protect non permanent UK workers such as agency staff, gig workers, zero hours, and other forms of modern employment. The association aims to review trends, share intelligence, develop best practice, and support the raising of standards, particularly in the Education and Healthcare sectors. 

Protecting Worker's Rights

Raising Standards

ASCOR are supported by a number of organisations protecting gig, agency, and zero hour worker's rights. Workers can get advice on this site on where to get additional help and support.  ​

Your Experiences in the Sector

We are always keen to hear from people engaged in the temporary labour market to let us know the realities of working in this market in the modern world of work. This helps us focus our time on changes and development to help improve the experience of those working in the labour supply chain, particularly in the Education and Healthcare sectors. 

One of ASCOR's primary aims is to support the raising of standards across the labour supply chain.

Sharing Intelligence

A key reason for bringing Compliance Organisations in the sector together is to discuss trends, intelligence, and relevant information relating to the sector. In this way we can ensure stakeholders are engaged and aware of relevant information. 

"  ASCOR exist to protect workers and raise standards in the recruitment sector"

"SAFERjobs and EAS are
collaborating to create the
first Association of Compliance Organisations (ASCOR) to tackle non-compliance in the education and healthcare sectors. I look forward to seeing how this work develops and impacts upon noncompliance in these sectors."
