The recent insights from the 2022 Staffing Monitor by the #ABU shed light on the pivotal role of temporary employment agencies in facilitating workforce integration and fostering economic growth. The temporary employment sector serves as a vital conduit for newcomers, including #Ukrainian displaced persons and asylum seekers, to seamlessly integrate into the Dutch job market. Notably, in 2022, a remarkable 35% of all Ukrainians employed in the Netherlands found opportunities through temporary employment agencies, underscoring the sector's significance in driving workforce diversity and inclusion. The sector's remarkable diversity is evident in the employment of individuals from 186 different nationalities. This inclusivity highlights the role of temporary employment as a gateway for individuals from diverse backgrounds to access job opportunities. Thousands of asylum seekers from countries like Syria, Somalia, and Eritrea found meaningful employment through temporary employment agencies in 2022, emphasizing the sector's pivotal role in providing pathways for newcomers to contribute to the workforce. As we continue to navigate the evolving landscape of the temporary employment industry, we remain committed to fostering an environment of inclusivity and opportunity. Through our dedication to embracing diversity, we strive to create a workforce that reflects the richness of our society while driving economic prosperity for all. Join us iand be part of diversity and inclusion in the temporary employment sector. #Inclusion #TemporaryEmployment #Workforce #HTCtechniek

Small businesses are facing more recruitment issues compared to larger ones. Despite some difficulties, overall trends suggest a cautious optimism with gradual improvements, but also highlight the ongoing struggle in meeting staffing needs, particularly in higher-skilled roles. #LaborMarketInsights #JobGrowthAustralia #AustralianJobMarket TMR Recruitment You can read the report here: https://lnkd.in/gWCQ98Pb

Employers are pivotal to the success of Canada’s immigration priorities, and are responsible for a large part of the integration and inclusion of newcomers into the labor market. But they currently lack a formal process and place for meaningful discussions about challenges, insights, and strategies for attracting, hiring, and retaining qualified immigrant talent. Now, a new project will give them a louder voice both about programs that prepare newcomers for work and in determining how newcomers are chosen to come to Canada.

The article indicates a significant lack of diversity in public jobs in Ireland, with 97% of workers being white Irish. These results clearly show there is significant room for improvement in diversity within public jobs. To improve diversity in public jobs, the government should implement diversity recruitment programs, provide mandatory diversity training, set and enforce diversity targets, and enhance outreach to minority communities. Additionally, reviewing and adjusting hiring practices, supporting career development and mentorship, and promoting an inclusive work environment are essential steps. I believe that these measures can help create a more representative public sector.
