Managing Director, Grafters
One of DRS’s best features is the compliance functionality; DRS manages in real-time, EU Drivers Hours and WTD which provides peace of mind that everyone placed is legal.
Managing Director, ERUK
The system controlling the day-to-day activity to such a degree allows me to focus on strategy and sales, which provides the best possible service to our clients and candidates.
UK Logistics
Auditor
I would rate the system as excellent and give it 10 out of 10. None of the systems I’ve come across at other agencies has its own analysis engine for EU Driver Hours, WTD/AWR.
Managing Director, Phoenix Personnel
DRS is a very effective system for any recruitment agency who wants to safely stay within legal requirement. We couldn’t be happier with the results.
Express Logistics
Being able to see a live log of incidents and infringements as well as basic KPI information makes for a transparent relationship with the agency.
Managing Director, Phoenix Personnel:
The expertise and knowledge of the industry within the DRS team was evident from the offset. I would highly recommend DRS, thank you again for the fantastic service.
