Entrenching our global reach and influence result from empowerment of our members. The World Employment Confederation aims to support them in building their capacity and maintaining the highest quality standards, as we are convinced that the future of work will become more reliant upon trustful labour market intermediaries.
Charles Cameron - Vice-President, World Employment Confederation
Thought leadership is about timing. As we prepare for the New Normal, the opportunity is there to position the industry as a ‘knowledge hub’ for all labour market and workplace issues.
Geraldine King - Board member, World Employment Confederation
A strong knowledge base is fundamental to support our advocacy activities and ensure sound regulatory frameworks. The World Employment Confederation helps members to better collect and organise knowledge, in particular data. Pulling our resources together contributes to strengthening the image of our industry as a credible partner.
