With U.S. health care employers major staffing challenges, the Alliance for Ethical International Recruitment Practices, a division of CGFNS International, has updated its best practice for fair and transparent recruitment of foreign-educated health professionals. The updated standards ─ developed with input from nursing organizations, employers, unions and recruiters ─ strengthen recommendations for contract transparency and orientation programs. They provide guidelines for recruitment agencies and employers to ensure migrants receive a fair contract, give informed consent and can access justice. “Our organization has been engaged in the work of the Alliance since its inception and fully endorses the Alliance Code,” said ��������CEO and American Hospital Association CNO and Senior Vice President of Workforce Robyn Begley. “A fair and equitable process of recruiting foreign-educated nurses is foundational to achieving a professional practice environment for all nurses.” (CGFNS , 3/7/23)
