2. The Client understands that the Agency operates as an introduction agency only between the Client and the Applicant.
3. The Agency will endeavour to introduce reliable Applicants and will use great care in selecting each Applicant. The Agency does not give any warranty concerning the suitability of any Applicant introduced by the Agency, the decision as to the suitability of any Applicant rests with the Client and while the Agency will take up references in respect of an Applicant it is a matter for the Client to decide what reliance can be placed on such references and the Client shall take whatever steps they consider necessary to make their own enquiries in respect of the Applicant. The Client is responsible for obtaining all work permits and satisfying any medical requirements or qualifications or other statutory requirements.
4. The Client acknowledges that all communication with all Agency Applicants is done through the Agency.

The Applicants are not employed by the Agency either directly or indirectly and the Agency shall not be responsible to the Clients or any other person for any damage, loss or expense incurred either directly or indirectly by reason of the negligence or shortcomings of any Applicant engaged by the Client. The Agency similarly accepts no liability whatsoever for any loss of property or damage to the same or any other loss, including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, loss of profits or any injury to persons directly or indirectly from any act of omission of the Applicant introduced by the Agency even if such act or omission is negligent or fraudulent or reveals dishonesty.

8. All introductions made by the Agency to the Client are confidential and are made individually to the Client. Where the Client passes on such an introduction to any other person resulting in the engagement of the Applicant by that person then the Client will be liable for the payment of the Agency fees which would have been payable had the Client engaged the Applicant directly and the Client hereby agrees to discharge the said Agency fees as would be payable in the event of the engagement by the Client of the Applicant directly.
