    Construction Recruitment Forum price-fixing case

    The UK Office of Fair Trading found that Hays and five other recruitment firms had participated in conduct connected with the Construction Recruitment Forum, including an agreement to boycott Parc, a new intermediary in the construction recruitment market. Hays received an initial £30.4 million fine, which the Competition Appeal Tribunal later reduced to £5.9 million after an appeal concerning the penalty level.
