Clearview Certification: Why Ethical Recruitment Matters | Vanteo

Written by Vanteo | February 10, 2026

Clearview certification is an independent, third-party verification that an international labor recruiter operates legally, ethically, and responsibly. For employers, it reduces compliance risk, protects worker welfare, and ensures recruitment practices meet leading global labor standards.

What is Clearview Certification?

Arkansas Global Connect (AGC), a Vanteo company, is Clearview certified. For employers that rely on seasonal or temporary international labor, that distinction carries real operational and compliance value.

AGC offers ethical workforce solutions by connecting employers to legal and reliable international workers when qualified U.S. labor is unavailable. Clearview certification places AGC among a small group of recruiters that have been independently verified for responsible recruitment practices.

Clearview is a global certification created and managed by Stronger Together, an organization focused on fair work, responsible recruitment, and the prevention of labor exploitation. The certification exists to help employers and workers identify recruiters that meet rigorous ethical, legal, and professional standards.

 

Clearview Certification: Standards and Verification Process

Clearview certification confirms that a labor recruiter operates responsibly across the full recruitment lifecycle. This includes how workers are sourced, informed, placed, supported, and protected.

To earn certification, organizations undergo a comprehensive, independent audit of their recruitment management systems. Licensed auditors trained in the Clearview methodology conduct site visits, review documentation, and assess real-world practices against a detailed set of technical standards and control points.

These standards are mapped to leading international frameworks, including:

  • IOM International Recruitment Integrity System (IRIS) Code of Conduct
  • ILO Fair Recruitment Initiative
  • Employer Pays Principle and Dhaka Principles
  • UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights

This process goes beyond policy review. It validates how recruitment is executed in practice.

 

 

Benefits of Clearview Certification for Employers

For employers sourcing seasonal international workers, Clearview certification provides confidence on multiple fronts.

  • It reduces risk by confirming that workers are recruited legally and ethically.
  • It supports compliance by aligning recruitment practices with globally recognized labor standards.
  • It protects brand reputation by ensuring workers are treated fairly throughout the recruitment process.

When employers partner with us, they can be confident that their seasonal workforce solutions are built on transparency, accountability, and compliance, not shortcuts.
