Acting as an employment business

[Funkywood]

What it an agency trying to get out of when they say AgencyX is acting as an employment business for the purpose of this vacancy?

Not trying to get out of anything. They are legally obliged to tell you this in order to make it clear they are not the employer and not responsible for deciding whether you get the job or not.
