1. Purpose of This Disclaimer

CareerWorkforce.com (“CareerWorkforce”, “we”, “our”, “us” or “the Platform”) is a technology-enabled HR marketplace and recruitment automation platform designed to facilitate connectivity, communication, information exchange and workflow interaction between different participants in the international human resources and workforce ecosystem.

CareerWorkforce is designed to connect relevant stakeholders through technology.

The Platform should not automatically be interpreted as a recruitment agency, employer, immigration authority, visa-issuing authority, government body, labour authority, employment guarantor or representative of any independent stakeholder using the Platform.

The purpose of this Disclaimer is to clearly explain the scope of CareerWorkforce's technology and platform services and to distinguish those services from recruitment, employment, immigration, work-permit, placement and other regulated activities that may be independently performed by participating stakeholders.

2. CareerWorkforce Is a Technology Platform

CareerWorkforce provides technology infrastructure intended to facilitate connectivity between participants in the HR and international workforce ecosystem.

Depending on the functionality available on the Platform, these services may include:

• Digital HR profiles
• Employer connectivity
• Recruitment stakeholder connectivity
• Workforce demand connectivity
• Candidate and workforce information management
• CV creation and management
• Bilingual CV functionality
• AI-assisted platform interactions
• Recruitment workflow automation
• Candidate shortlisting tools
• Interview-related technology
• Digital communication
• Notifications
• Stakeholder networking
• Information exchange
• Marketplace functionality
• Digital documentation and workflow support
• Other technology-enabled HR functions

These functionalities are intended to facilitate interaction between stakeholders.

CareerWorkforce does not, merely by providing technology or connectivity, become a party to the employment, recruitment, immigration, work-permit or other contractual relationship between users.

3. CareerWorkforce Is Not a Guarantee Provider

CareerWorkforce does not promise or guarantee:

• Employment
• Job selection
• Interview selection
• Employment offers
• Appointment letters
• Work permits
• Visas
• Immigration approval
• Travel approval
• Salary
• Working conditions
• Joining dates
• Duration of employment
• Continuation of employment
• Renewal of employment
• Deployment or departure
• Any particular outcome from use of the Platform

The publication, display, communication or transmission of an employment opportunity through CareerWorkforce does not constitute a promise or guarantee that an intending emigrant will obtain that opportunity.

Similarly, the creation of a profile, CV, application or connection through the Platform does not guarantee selection.

4. No Guarantee of Employment

CareerWorkforce expressly states:

USE OF THE PLATFORM DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT ANY USER WILL OBTAIN EMPLOYMENT.

Employers and other authorized stakeholders independently determine whether they wish to:

• Review a candidate
• Contact a candidate
• Interview a candidate
• Select a candidate
• Reject a candidate
• Offer employment
• Withdraw an offer
• Change employment terms
• Suspend employment
• Terminate employment

Such decisions remain the responsibility of the relevant employer or stakeholder, subject to applicable law and contractual obligations.

CareerWorkforce does not control the independent employment decisions of employers.

5. Employment Relationship Is Between the Relevant Parties

Where an employer and worker enter into an employment relationship, the employment relationship is between the relevant parties according to their applicable agreement and applicable law.

CareerWorkforce is not automatically:

• The employer of the worker;
• The guarantor of the employer;
• The guarantor of the worker;
• The party responsible for salary payments;
• The party responsible for employment benefits;
• The party responsible for workplace conditions;
• The party responsible for termination decisions; or
• The party responsible for the continuation of employment.

The existence of a connection facilitated through CareerWorkforce does not by itself create an employment relationship between CareerWorkforce and any worker.

6. Employer's Independent Responsibility

An employer using CareerWorkforce remains independently responsible for its employment decisions and obligations.

The employer is responsible for ensuring, where applicable, that:

• The employment opportunity is genuine;
• Employment information is accurate;
• Employment contracts are lawful;
• Salary and employment conditions comply with applicable law;
• Required immigration and work-permit procedures are followed;
• Required approvals are obtained;
• Workers are treated lawfully and fairly;
• Employment decisions comply with applicable labour laws; and
• Any termination, cancellation or modification of employment is conducted according to applicable law and contractual obligations.

CareerWorkforce does not assume the employer's legal obligations merely because the employer uses the Platform.

7. Withdrawal, Cancellation or Termination of Employment

An employer may, subject to applicable law and contractual obligations, independently decide to:

• Withdraw an employment offer;
• Cancel an appointment;
• Change an employment position;
• Delay joining;
• Suspend employment;
• Terminate employment;
• End an employment contract; or
• Decline to proceed with a candidate.

If an employer takes such action for any lawful or contractual reason, CareerWorkforce shall not be considered responsible for the employer's independent employment decision merely because the candidate and employer were connected through the Platform.

CareerWorkforce does not guarantee that employment will continue after a candidate has been selected or hired.

Any dispute concerning an employment contract, salary, termination, workplace conditions or other employment matter should be addressed between the relevant parties and, where appropriate, the competent authority or forum having jurisdiction.

8. Recruitment Agencies and Other Regulated Stakeholders

CareerWorkforce may facilitate connectivity between employers, recruitment agencies, HR consultancies, workforce suppliers, facilitators, demand partners, domestic worker offices and other stakeholders.

Each stakeholder remains independently responsible for complying with the laws and regulatory requirements applicable to its activities.

Where a particular activity requires:

• A recruitment licence;
• Government registration;
• Professional authorization;
• Immigration authorization;
• Work-permit authorization;
• Overseas employment authorization;
• Labour approval;
• Any other governmental permission,

the relevant stakeholder is responsible for obtaining and maintaining such authorization.

CareerWorkforce does not represent that every stakeholder is licensed or authorized for every activity in every country unless specifically verified and expressly represented by CareerWorkforce.

9. Country-Specific Laws

International workforce mobility may involve the laws of multiple jurisdictions.

These may include the laws of:

• The worker's country of origin;
• The country where recruitment activity takes place;
• A transit country;
• The destination country; and
• Any other jurisdiction involved in the relevant transaction or service.

CareerWorkforce recognizes that legal requirements may differ substantially between countries.

A service or activity that is lawful in one jurisdiction may be regulated, restricted or prohibited in another.

Accordingly, each stakeholder is responsible for determining and complying with the laws applicable to its own activities.

Nothing on CareerWorkforce should be interpreted as permission to bypass or disregard any applicable law.

10. Platform Services Are Distinct From Recruitment Activities

CareerWorkforce distinguishes between platform services and regulated recruitment or employment activities.

Platform Services

CareerWorkforce may provide technology-based services such as:

• Platform access;
• Digital connectivity;
• Marketplace functionality;
• Profile management;
• CV technology;
• Communication tools;
• Workflow automation;
• Information exchange;
• Stakeholder networking;
• AI-assisted functions;
• Notifications;
• Digital HR tools; and
• Other technology-enabled services.

Independent Stakeholder Activities

A participating stakeholder may independently undertake activities such as:

• Recruitment;
• Candidate assessment;
• Interviewing;
• Employment selection;
• Employment contracting;
• Immigration assistance;
• Work-permit processing;
• Travel arrangements;
• Workforce supply;
• Domestic worker placement;
• HR consultancy;
• Other professional or regulated services.

The legal responsibility for an independently performed activity remains with the stakeholder performing that activity, subject to applicable law.

11. Fees, Charges and Commissions

CareerWorkforce may introduce different commercial models as its technology marketplace develops.

Depending on the service and applicable law, commercial arrangements may include:

• Platform subscriptions;
• Membership fees;
• Technology access charges;
• Service charges;
• Advertising charges;
• Listing charges;
• Connectivity charges;
• Transaction charges;
• Referral arrangements;
• Commission arrangements;
• Professional service charges; or
• Other lawful commercial arrangements.

The existence, amount and structure of any charge may vary according to the relevant service, stakeholder, jurisdiction, commercial arrangement and applicable law.

No provision of this Policy should be interpreted as establishing that a particular fee, commission or charge is lawful in every jurisdiction.

Where a particular charge or payment is regulated or restricted by applicable law, the relevant parties are responsible for complying with that law.

CareerWorkforce may modify, introduce, suspend or discontinue commercial arrangements as the Platform develops and as applicable legal and regulatory requirements evolve.

12. No Hidden Promise Through Payment

Payment for a CareerWorkforce platform service does not create a guarantee of employment or any other outcome.

In particular:

Payment for platform access, technology services or any other platform service does not guarantee a job, selection, visa, work permit, employment offer, joining, deployment or continuation of employment.

A user should not interpret payment for a platform service as payment for a guaranteed employment outcome unless a specific lawful written agreement expressly states otherwise.

13. Information Provided by Third Parties

CareerWorkforce may display or facilitate access to information supplied by employers, recruitment agencies, HR consultancies, workforce suppliers or other independent stakeholders.

CareerWorkforce does not necessarily originate every piece of information appearing on the Platform.

Third-party users are responsible for the accuracy, legality and completeness of information they submit.

Users should independently evaluate information and documentation before entering into any contractual or financial arrangement.

14. No Guarantee of Third-Party Conduct

CareerWorkforce cannot guarantee that every independent user or stakeholder will always:

• Act lawfully;
• Fulfil a promise;
• Honour an employment offer;
• Maintain an opportunity;
• Pay an agreed amount;
• Provide employment;
• Continue employment;
• Complete a transaction; or
• Perform its contractual obligations.

CareerWorkforce may establish verification, reporting, monitoring or compliance procedures, but no verification mechanism should be interpreted as an absolute guarantee of a stakeholder's future conduct.

15. Responsibility for Documents and Representations

Users remain responsible for the authenticity and accuracy of documents and information they submit.

This includes, where applicable:

• Passports;
• CVs;
• Educational certificates;
• Employment records;
• Professional licences;
• Work experience;
• Identity information;
• Employment offers;
• Contracts;
• Visa information; and
• Other documentation.

Submitting information through CareerWorkforce does not make CareerWorkforce responsible for false, fraudulent or misleading information supplied by a user or third party.

16. No Immigration or Governmental Guarantee

CareerWorkforce is not an immigration authority, embassy, consulate, labour ministry or visa-issuing authority.

CareerWorkforce cannot guarantee:

• Visa approval;
• Immigration approval;
• Work-permit approval;
• Entry into a country;
• Residence authorization;
• Departure authorization; or
• Any decision made by a government authority.

Government authorities retain exclusive authority over decisions within their statutory jurisdiction.

17. No Guarantee of Candidate Suitability

The presence of a candidate profile or CV on the Platform does not constitute a guarantee that the candidate:

• Possesses every stated qualification;
• Has the stated experience;
• Is medically fit;
• Is legally eligible to work;
• Will obtain a visa;
• Will obtain a work permit; or
• Will perform satisfactorily.

Employers and other stakeholders remain responsible for conducting whatever due diligence is legally and commercially appropriate before making an employment decision.

18. No Guarantee of Employer Suitability

Similarly, the presence of an employer or organization on the Platform does not automatically constitute a guarantee that the employer:

• Will hire a particular candidate;
• Will maintain an employment opportunity;
• Will provide the stated employment conditions;
• Will continue employment; or
• Will fulfil every representation made by its representatives.

Users should consider the information available and undertake appropriate due diligence before entering into contractual or financial relationships.

19. Human Trafficking and Exploitation

CareerWorkforce is strictly against:

• Human trafficking;
• Forced labour;
• Slavery;
• Debt bondage;
• Exploitative recruitment;
• Fraudulent recruitment;
• Coercion;
• Deception;
• Illegal recruitment;
• Fraudulent employment opportunities; and
• Other forms of exploitation.

CareerWorkforce seeks to support lawful and transparent workforce mobility.

Any user or stakeholder suspected of using the Platform for unlawful exploitation may be subject to account restriction, suspension, removal or referral to competent authorities where appropriate and legally permissible.

20. CareerWorkforce Does Not Replace Government Regulation

CareerWorkforce is a technology platform.

It does not replace:

• Government recruitment regulators;
• Labour authorities;
• Immigration authorities;
• Embassies;
• Consulates;
• Courts;
• Law-enforcement agencies;
• Licensed professional advisers; or
• Other competent authorities.

Where an official approval, licence, registration, permit or authorization is required, users must obtain it from the appropriate authority.

21. Limitation of Platform Responsibility

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, CareerWorkforce shall not be responsible for losses, claims, costs, damages or disputes arising solely from an independent decision, representation, contract, employment relationship or service provided by another user or stakeholder.

This includes, where legally permissible:

• Rejection of an application;
• Withdrawal of an employment offer;
• Cancellation of employment;
• Termination of employment;
• Non-payment of salary by an employer;
• Change in employment conditions;
• Failure to obtain a visa;
• Failure to obtain a work permit;
• Failure to travel or depart;
• Conduct of an independent recruitment agency;
• Conduct of an independent employer;
• Conduct of an independent service provider; or
• Disputes arising from contracts between independent parties.

Nothing in this clause excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.

22. Platform Development and Policy Evolution

CareerWorkforce is an evolving technology marketplace.

As the Platform expands into additional countries, introduces additional stakeholders, develops new technology and encounters different regulatory environments, its policies and commercial arrangements may require periodic review and modification.

CareerWorkforce therefore reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to amend or update:

• Platform policies;
• Terms of use;
• Stakeholder categories;
• Verification procedures;
• Service descriptions;
• Platform features;
• Pricing structures;
• Subscription arrangements;
• Charges;
• Commission arrangements;
• Compliance procedures;
• Privacy practices;
• Marketplace rules; and
• Other operational policies.

Changes may be made to reflect technological development, business requirements, regulatory developments, legal requirements or changes in the international HR ecosystem.

The latest published version of the relevant policy will govern use of the Platform from its effective date, subject to applicable law and any contractual rights that cannot lawfully be modified.

23. No Waiver of Legal Rights

Nothing contained in this Disclaimer is intended to:

• Authorize unlawful conduct;
• Exclude mandatory legal protections;
• Override employment legislation;
• Override immigration legislation;
• Override recruitment regulations;
• Waive non-waivable statutory rights; or
• Prevent a competent authority from exercising its lawful powers.

Where a provision of this Disclaimer conflicts with mandatory applicable law, the mandatory legal requirement shall prevail to the extent of that conflict.

24. Acceptance of Platform Role

By using CareerWorkforce.com, users acknowledge that CareerWorkforce is principally providing a technology-enabled environment for HR connectivity, marketplace interaction, information exchange and workflow automation.

Users understand that:

CareerWorkforce provides the platform.

Independent stakeholders provide their respective professional, recruitment, employment or other services.

Employers make their own employment decisions.

Workers make their own decisions regarding opportunities.

Government authorities make their own regulatory and immigration decisions.

Each party remains responsible for its own actions and obligations under applicable law.

25. Our Core Principle

CareerWorkforce's fundamental objective is to make international HR connectivity more organized, transparent and accessible through technology.

We believe that technology can help connect:

Employers ↔ Recruitment Stakeholders ↔ HR Professionals ↔ Workforce Suppliers ↔ Facilitators ↔ Intending Emigrants

while allowing each participant to operate according to the laws and regulatory requirements applicable to its activities.

CareerWorkforce does not promise an outcome.

We provide the technology, connectivity and platform environment through which opportunities and stakeholders can connect.

26. Final Disclaimer

CAREERWORKFORCE DOES NOT GUARANTEE A JOB.

CareerWorkforce does not promise that an intending emigrant will be selected, hired, issued an employment letter, obtain a visa or work permit, travel to another country, commence employment, or remain employed for any particular period.

Any employment decision is made independently by the relevant employer or authorized stakeholder.

If an employer selects a worker and subsequently withdraws the offer, cancels the employment, changes the position, delays joining, suspends employment or terminates the employment relationship for any lawful or contractual reason, CareerWorkforce does not become responsible for that decision merely because the parties were connected through CareerWorkforce.

CareerWorkforce is a technology-enabled HR marketplace and recruitment automation platform. It facilitates connectivity and provides platform services. It does not, solely by providing such services, assume the responsibilities of an employer, recruitment agency, immigration authority or other independently regulated stakeholder.

All users and stakeholders are responsible for complying with the laws applicable to their own activities.

CareerWorkforce is committed to lawful workforce mobility, responsible HR connectivity, transparency and the prevention of human trafficking and exploitation.

CareerWorkforce connects the opportunity. The relevant parties remain responsible for their respective decisions, contracts, services and legal obligations.
