For funders
Evidence of fair hiring, without a new reporting burden.
Ask the charities you fund for a Hiring Receipt — a signed, independently verifiable record of how each role was filled.
Why ask grantees for a Receipt
Recruitment is often one of the least evidenced parts of a funded organisation's work. A grantee may be able to show who was hired, but not whether the role was open, criteria-led, timely, and documented. A Hiring Receipt gives funders a standard process record without asking charities to write another report.
What a Receipt evidences
- The role was run against a recorded process
- Applicants were counted
- The scoring rubric was visible
- Candidate response times were measured
- Written outcomes were tracked
- Salary information was recorded or visibly withheld
- Demographic reporting was voluntary, aggregate, and suppressed below k-anonymity thresholds
- Any opt-outs are visible
- The record can be independently verified
