Continuation of Treasury Share Purchase programme

On 23 September 2020, Hays plc ("Hays" or the "Company") announced a Treasury
purchase programme for up to 10,000,000 ordinary shares, which was completed
on 29 November 2021.  A programme to purchase up to a further 10,000,000
ordinary shares of 1p will commence today (the "Treasury Share Purchase").
The Treasury Share Purchase will be made under the Company's existing

is in lieu of block listing new shares to satisfy these schemes, as per
previous years.

The Company has entered into an agreement with UBS AG London to conduct the
Treasury Share Purchase on its behalf during open periods. The Treasury Share
Purchase will be conducted within the certain parameters including those
prescribed by the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014, the Commission Delegated
