Stay safe, stay in control
Your safety checklist
6 essential guidelinesYou decide who to work with
GP provides the technology. The decision to apply, interview or sign anything is always yours. GP is not a party to your agreement with any company.
Verify the company
Look for the "Verified by GP Solution" badge. Not every company is verified. If there is no badge, check the company is real and officially registered before you share information or commit.
Never pay to get a job
Legitimate employers never ask you to pay to be hired. Be cautious of any request for money: training, visas, permits, equipment or fees. Need a certificate or visa? Arrange it yourself through official channels, never via a recruiter.
Check training before paying
Fake institutions sell certificates employers will not accept. Make sure a course is genuinely required and industry-recognised. Use our verified training centres.
Protect your documents
Share your passport, seaman's book or bank details only when you are sure the employer is genuine and it is actually needed, never just to "apply".
Watch for red flags
Be careful with anyone who rushes you, pushes the chat to WhatsApp or Telegram immediately, or asks for money or documents not needed just to apply.
Verified training centres
Every centre in our directory comes from a published accrediting-body registry. These are some of the most widely accredited.

See something suspicious?
Use the Report button on any vacancy: scam, fake recruiter, fake, incorrect, duplicate or expired. A human moderator reviews every report.
Some vacancies come from public sources; those employers are not registered on GP. Apply with the same caution you would use anywhere on the internet. Association and certificate names (e.g. GWO, OPITO, HUET) are used only to identify recognised courses and do not imply any partnership or endorsement.
