The recruitment industry is highly competitive and can be very challenging at times. As such, it's vital that their employees are appropriately recognised and rewarded for the contribution they make to the success of EMR. While the EMR benefits package is comprehensive, in addition to this they offer on going rewards for meeting and exceeding monthly individual and team targets, as well as on going quarterly and annual rewards for value-based performance. These include bottles of champagne, iPads, extra holiday days, bar tabs, team lunches and the Red Letter rewards scheme outlined above. A generous bounty system is also in place to reward current employees who refer new employees into the business.
