Version 1.2 | March 2026
By registering as an Employer with Lasem Group, you (the “Client”) agree to the following professional mandate and legal framework governing our recruitment and HR consultancy services.
1. Accuracy of Job Specifications
The Client agrees to provide comprehensive and accurate descriptions for all vacancies. Lasem Group will use this data to build a proprietary Success Profile. Any material changes to the job spec after candidates have been shortlisted may result in additional administrative fees.
2. The Success Profile Mandate
Our recruitment process is built on a 90-day integration model. To qualify for our Placement Guarantee, the Employer agrees to:
- Participate in the scheduled 30, 60, and 90-day performance check-ins.
- Provide the candidate with the necessary tools and environment defined in the initial Success Profile.
- Notify Lasem Group within 48 hours of any performance concerns during the probation period.
3. Fee Structure & “Backdoor Hiring” Protection
- Placement Fees: Fees are calculated as a percentage of the candidate’s Total Guaranteed Annual Remuneration (TGAR), as per the signed Service Level Agreement (SLA).
- Referral Ownership: Any candidate introduced by Lasem Group remains our “ownership” for 12 months. If the Client hires the candidate directly, or via a subsidiary, without notifying Lasem Group, the full placement fee will become immediately due and payable.
4. POPIA & Data Privacy (Candidates)
In accordance with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA), the Employer agrees to:
- Treat all candidate CVs and personal data as strictly confidential.
- Not share candidate data with third parties without written consent from Lasem Group.
- Securely destroy candidate data if the individual is not hired.
5. Employment Equity & Statutory Compliance
Lasem Group is a champion of fair labor practices. By registering, the Employer warrants that:
- All hiring decisions comply with the Employment Equity Act and the Basic Conditions of Employment Act.
- They are a registered taxpayer with SARS and compliant with UIF/COIDA regulations (unless utilizing Lasem Group’s Compliance Packages to rectify this).
6. Liability Disclaimer
While Lasem Group performs rigorous vetting (Criminal, Credit, and Qualification), the final decision to employ rests solely with the Client. Lasem Group shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or legal costs arising from the acts or omissions of a candidate once they are under the Client’s direct supervision.
