Block-groups and Hall relations

A binary relation on a finite set is called a Hall relation if it contains a permutation of the set. Under the usual relational product, Hall relations form a semigroup which is known to be a block-group, that is, a semigroup with at most one idempotent in each $mathrsfs{R}$-class and each $mathrsfs{L}$-class. Here we show that in a certain sense, the converse is true: every block-group divides a semigroup of Hall relations on a finite set.
