Bluestones Staffing receives GLAA licence

Bluestones Staffing is thrilled to announce it has been awarded a Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority GLAA Licence.

The GLAA operates a licensing scheme to regulate the provision of workers for roles in the UK fresh produce sector – agriculture, horticulture, shellfish gathering and any associated processing and packaging.

Bluestones Staffing will now work in partnership with the GLAA to protect vulnerable and exploited workers and is now authorised to act as a Gangmaster in relation to the supply of temporary labour to the agriculture, horticulture, and processing and packaging sectors.

The GLAA Licence was awarded following an independent audit.

If you’re interested in obtaining temporary staff, get in contact with a member of the Bluestones Staffing team on 028 95 219 313 or info@bluestones-staffing.co.uk.
