5. Payment of Fees
5.1 The Client shall immediately notify and confirm the Remuneration (or, to the extent it consists of elements as yet unknown, minimum Remuneration and additional anticipated Remuneration) to Meet on the Engagement of a Candidate following a successful Introduction of a Candidate by Meet to the Client.
5.2 Following the acceptance of an offer through written confirmation, Meet shall issue to the Client an invoice detailing the Introduction Fee payable by the Client to Meet pursuant to clause 4 above.
5.3 The Client shall pay the Introduction Fee to Meet within fourteen days of the date of the Introduction Fee invoice.

5.4 To the extent the Remuneration for the relevant period of the Engagement is or will be, in the reasonable opinion of Meet, materially greater than the sum notified in clause 5.1, Meet shall at any time be entitled to charge an additional Introduction Fee in respect of the difference.
6. Suitability and References
6.1 In accordance with the requirements of the Regulations, Meet will not supply a Candidate to the Client, such that an Engagement starts without first obtaining confirmation of their identity, that they are willing to work in the Role in which the Client wishes to Engage them and that they have the experience, training, qualifications and any authorisation which the Client considers necessary for the Role or which are required by law or any professional body.
6.2 The information which Meet has obtained under clause 6.1 above will be provided to the Client as soon as possible, being not later than required by law.
6.3 Meet will not supply a Candidate to the Client such that an Engagement starts unless it has taken all reasonably practicable steps to ensure that the Client and the Candidate are aware of any requirements imposed by law or any professional body which must be satisfied to enable the Candidate to work in the Role. Meet will also make such enquiries as are reasonably practicable to ensure that it would not be detrimental to the interests of either party for the Candidate to work in the Role.
6.4 To enable Meet to comply with its obligations under the Regulations, the Client shall provide Meet with sufficient information to enable it to select a suitable Candidate for the Role which must include the date on which the Client requires the Candidate to commence work and (if the Engagement is for a fixed period) the likely duration; the nature of the work, the location, hours and any risks to health and safety known to the Client and the steps taken to control such risks; details of the experience, training, qualifications and any authorisations which the Client considers necessary, or which are required by law or any professional body for the Candidate to possess to work in the Role; details of any Expenses payable.
6.5 The Client will also inform Meet of the minimum rate of Remuneration and (if greater) expected Remuneration and other benefits for the Role, the intervals of pay and the notice required to terminate the Engagement.
6.6 Notwithstanding the above, the Client must satisfy itself as to the suitability of the Candidate and the Client shall take up such references provided to the Client by Meet or the Candidate before engaging the Candidate. The Client is responsible for obtaining work permits and/or such other permission to work as may be required, for the arrangement for medical examinations and/or any investigations into the medical history of the Candidate and satisfying any medical or other requirements, qualifications or permission required by law applicable to the Engagement.
6.7 In accordance with Regulation 22 of the Regulations, where required, Meet will take all reasonably practicable steps to obtain copies of any relevant qualifications or authorisations and two references from persons not related to the Candidate who have agreed that the references they provide may be disclosed to the Client. In accordance with Regulation 22 of the Regulations, where required, Meet shall offer to provide copies of such information to the Client and if it is unable to obtain any of the above information then it shall inform the Client of the steps it has taken to obtain it.
6.8 The Client shall inform Meet if a Role will include or may include working with, or caring for persons under the age of eighteen and/or a Role which involves caring for or attending any person who by reason of age, infirmity, or any other circumstances is in need of care or attention. If the Role will or may include that, the Client shall provide such information and cooperation as Meet shall reasonably require to enable Meet to comply with the requirements of Regulation 22 of the Regulations.
7. Rebate Entitlement
7.1 If the Candidate’s Engagement comes to an end within twelve working weeks from the Engagement Date, Meet will endeavour to source a free replacement, provided the following conditions are met:
(a) the Client has given Meet written notice of the termination of the Engagement within 7 days of that termination;
(b) the Client has fully paid the Introduction Fee in accordance with clauses 4 and 5;
(c) the Candidate’s Engagement is not terminated by reason of redundancy or re-organisation or change in strategy of the Client or third party or in circumstances which would, in the reasonable opinion of Meet, constitute grounds for redundancy or unfair dismissal had the relevant qualifying period elapsed since the Engagement date;
(d) the Candidate did not leave the Engagement because he/she reasonably believed that the nature of the actual work was substantially different from the information the Client provided prior to the Candidate’s acceptance of the Engagement;
(e) the Candidate did not leave the Engagement as a result of unlawful discrimination or any other unlawful act against the Candidate;
(f) the Client has in good faith allowed Meet exclusivity to Introduce a suitable replacement Candidate for the same position and Meet has not, within 28 days of the Client's notification to Meet been able to make an Introduction of a suitable Candidate provided that Meet shall act in good faith and notify the Client as soon as possible if it does not consider it has any reasonable prospect of finding a suitable replacement Candidate;
(g) if the Candidate’s Engagement is terminated by reason of misconduct, such misconduct was reasonably foreseeable by Meet; and
(h) the Candidate was not at any time in the 12 months prior to the start of the Engagement employed or engaged (whether on a permanent or contract basis, directly or indirectly) by the Client.
7.2 If within twelve calendar months of the termination of the Engagement the Candidate is Re-Engaged by the Client (other than as a temporary worker provided by Meet) then an Introduction Fee as calculated in clause 4.1 above is payable by the Client to Meet.
7.3 Where the Engagement is terminated with notice the Engagement will be deemed (for the purposes of clause 7.1) terminated on the final date of the notice period (including where a payment has been made in lieu of notice), and not (if different) the date when notice is given.

8. Availability of Meet Candidates
8.1 Meet shall use all reasonable endeavours to Introduce suitable Candidates but does not guarantee that a Candidate is available to accept any Engagement.
8.2 Where a Candidate is Engaged the Client acknowledges that Meet is not required to check whether the solicitation of or contact with or Introduction of or Engagement of a Candidate might cause any Candidate or the Client to be in breach of any restrictive covenant or other related obligation owed to any current or ex-employer of the relevant Candidate and under no circumstances is Meet liable for any Loss incurred by the Client or any other entity from any solicitation of, contact with, Introduction of or subsequent Engagement of a Candidate save for death or personal injury caused by the Candidate’s own negligence.

Each party shall indemnify the other in respect of any Loss incurred by the other (and/or any company within the others Group) arising out of or in connection with a breach of this duty of confidentiality.

13.7 This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all previous agreements and arrangements (if any) whether written, oral or implied between Meet and the Client relating to the Introduction of Candidates.
