7、curb infections and safeguard public health.Measures such as social distancing,restrictions on migration and sectoral lockdowns came at a significant cost to economic growth.At the same time,governments delivered mas-sive financial support programmes to help businesses and workers.While the struggle
8、 with the pandemic continues into a third year in 2022 and recovery from the global crisis is still underway,it is important to look back and assess the impact of the pandemic and to draw lessons from the past.The private employment services industry was one of many sectors to see a decline in the f
9、irst year of the pandemic.Turnover of the entire industry,bringing together the five ser-vice segments agency work,direct recruitment,career management,Managed Services Providers(MSP)and Recruitment Process Outsourcing(RPO),contracted by 9%in 2020.This decline marks a halt to the positive annual gro
10、wth seen for the past couple of years but comes as no surprise.Despite this challenging context,the private employment services industry focused more than ever on making a clear and positive contribution in supporting people,businesses,and labour markets.In 2020,our industry placed more than 58 mill
11、ion people in labour markets globally.By providing training opportunities,facilitating job transitions,fostering inclusiveness,and providing supplementary access to social benefits,the sector played a crucial role in mitigating the impact of the crisis.This role was particularly needed in the health
12、care sector,which,thanks to agency work,was appropriately staffed and equipped to weather the crisis.We encourage you to consult our annual Social Impact Reports which provide evidence and analyses of how the private employment services sector generates more value for workers.In 2021,we already expe
13、rienced strong growth in the private employment services industry,as many of the largest markets began their recovery quickly after the initial and unprece-dented downturn of the second quarter of 2020.As conditions improved and businesses adapted to the new uncertainty brought about by the pandemic
14、,economies and labour mar-kets picked up again.Higher-frequency indicators for the private employment services sector show that as of the end of 2021,several of the largest markets are already back to pre-crisis levels in terms of activity and turnover.As the world of work reinvents itself,the futur

22、ID-19 pandemic turned economies,labour markets and societies upside down,the private employment services industry,like many other sectors,was heavily impacted.Turnover for the global industry declined by 9.0%in 20201,compared with a 3.1%contraction of global GDP(International Monetary Fund).Agency w
23、ork turnover,the largest segment of the private employ-ment services industry,was down by 10.0%globally.Direct recruitment turnover dropped by 16.3%,while the MSP and RPO markets contracted by 3.3%and 10.3%respectively.As entire sectors closed for much of the year in order to contain the pandemic,an
24、d the services sector the major share of agency work activities was especially affected,these declines came as no surprise.On the other hand,the career management industry grew in 2020,due its countercyclical nature.In economic downturns accompanied by waves of dismissals,the career man-agement indu
25、stry,and in particular outplacement services,are much needed to transition laid off personnel to new employment opportunities.The largest 15 agency work markets generated 93%of global sector revenues,while the 15 largest direct recruitment markets accounted for 95%of the global turnover in that segm
26、ent of the private employment services industry.Nearly all of these markets declined in 2020.Most of them saw drops in the double-digit range,with the US agency work and direct recruitment turnover down by 12%and 29%respectively.2 The UK markets contracted by 9%and 38%3 and Germany,France and the Ne
27、therlands fared similarly,at least when looking at the agency work mar-kets.Japan,the second largest agency work market after the United States,is the only market to have grown in 2020 when looking at revenues.A part of the growth in the Japanese market can be attributed to rising salaries of agency
28、 workers due to regulatory changes,which in turn resulted in an inflation of agencies fees.1 All growth rates throughout the report are in Euro terms.For conversion,the annual average exchange rate for the respective year as reported by the OECD was applied2 -11%and-25%in local currency3 -8%and-37%i
29、n local currencyThe number of workers placed in jobs by the private employment services sector dropped drastically in most countries in 2020.In total,the industry placed 58 mil-lion people in the labour market in that year.When excluding China,one of the few markets which saw an increase in the numb
30、er of people placed in jobs,2020 saw an 11%drop in the number of people placed by the agency work sector.The global penetration rate of the agency work sector also dropped in 2020.The rate which indicates the share of agency workers in full-time equivalents among the working population was at 1.5%,d
31、own from 1.6%in the year before the pan-demic.Sector activity tends to be highly cyclical.The flexibility provided to labour markets by agency work services acts,on the one hand,as a shock absorber to businesses needing to quickly scale down operations,leading to a relatively quicker reduction in se
32、ctor activity during uncertainty at the onset of an economic downturn.On the other hand,employment in the sector expands more rapidly than in the overall labour market once conditions show signs of improvement,as businesses can quickly hire new workers.Looking ahead,agency work markets around the wo
33、rld are experiencing a remark-able recovery.The most recent country data indicates several countries being close to or above pre-crisis levels once again towards the second half of 2021 when looking at both volume and value of the agency work sector.While this current edition of the Economic Report
34、focuses on the year 2020,it is expected that in 2021 the industry made up for much of the losses experienced during the previous,unprecedented year.4|WEC Economic Report 2022 Private Employment Services Industry Global Market 2020:465.8bnCareer Management:2.2bnRPO:5.1bnAgency Work:361.4bnDirectRecru

38、tsourcing(RPO)and career management markets remain relatively small in size,at 5.1 billion($5.8 bn)and 2.2 billion($2.5 bn)respectively.While the estimates in this report only include countries that are members of the World Employment Confederation,their combined market share of the global private e

41、e losses from 2020Source:WEC members;Eurostat In 2021,economic and labour market conditions improved in many countries.Output in most OECD countries surpassed their pre-crisis levels(OECD).The esti-mated global loss in working hours for 2021 is 4.5%for the baseline scenario,compared with 9%in 2020(I
42、LO).Migrant employment had bounced back as well(OECD).With these improved conditions,the agency work industry around the world recovered rapidly from the major decline in 2020.The United States,the largest agency work market globally,already reached pre-crisis levels in the sec-ond quarter of 2021.D
43、uring that period,the volume of agency work assignments grew by 50%on average compared to the second quarter of 2020,when the industry experienced its most pronounced contraction.In the subsequent quar-ters,agency worker volumes continued expanding on a year-on-year basis,up 31%in Q3 and up 21%in Q4
44、 of 2021.In Europe,the sectors recovery has not been as quick as in the United States,but nonetheless impressive,with most markets being close to pre-crisis levels towards the end of 2021 and some having already surpassed them.The second quarter of 2021 saw impressive growth in agency work activity,
45、up 54%compared with the same quarter in 2020.Here,as in the United States,growth was unprecedented.This is largely due to the fact that the base period for comparison is the quarter during which the impact of the pandemic-induced crisis peaked and resulted in the most pronounced declines observed si
46、nce these statistics started being collected.Agency work activity in Europe also continued expanding in the subsequent two quarters on average,although at a slower pace.The positive growth rates only just about outpaced the rates of contraction seen in the same quarters of 2020.6|WEC Economic Report

48、erican Staffing Association;Federal Reserve Bank of St.LouisComparing the current crisis to the previous global crisis,the impact on the sector has been more pronounced and rapid as is the case for economies and labour markets in general.At the same time,the recovery,while not fully achieved at the
49、end of 2021,is just as fast and pronounced.The agency work sector remains a sound indicator of where the economy is head-ing.Historically,sector activity has been highly correlated to GDP growth.Generally,the flexible employment element characteristic of agency work means that,at the onset of a cont
50、raction,activity in the sector declines before a drop in overall employment rates typically a lagging indicator.This was visible throughout the global financial crisis and is also observed during the crisis induced by the COVID-19 pandemic.On the other hand,agency work activity is,for the same reaso
51、ns,among the first sectors to expand again at the turnaround point,when economic outlook improves after a downturn.In Europe,the agency work sector started expanding again on a year-on-year basis in the first quarter of 2021,while overall GDP growth remained negative but close to zero,signalling the
52、 onset of the recovery.The most recent monthly and quarterly statistics on agency work sector develop-ments can be accessed on the World Employment Confederation website,in a regularly updated briefing document.7|WEC Economic Report 2022Global sales revenues of service segments:2019 2020%change 2019

55、more than ten years(IMF).With global supply chains disrupted,labour migration largely restricted and entire economic sectors having been closed,private employment services faced a difficult environment in which to operate.In the second quarter of 2020,the share of the global workforce living in coun
56、tries with required closures for all but essential workplaces stood as high as 70%(ILO).2020 therefore marked a halt to the positive annual growth observed over previous years.Agency work,the largest segment of the private employment services industry,drove most of the industrys decline and saw an a
57、nnual drop in turnover of 10.0%.The direct recruit-ment market size saw more a pronounced decline,albeit from a smaller base,down 16.3%in 2020.Turnover generated by MSP activities was down by 3.3%globally,while RPO revenues dropped by 10.3%.Outplacement,the main type of services delivered by the car
58、eer manage-ment industry,was the only segment of the private employment services industry to experi-ence growth in 2020.Up by 14%,the outplacement sector benefitted from its countercyclical nature in that demand for its services expanded greatly amid the layoff waves seen during the COVID-19 crisis.
59、Virtually all countries were affected by the pandemic,and most have introduced some form of containment measures to limit the spread of the virus.These direct influences,along with indi-rect negative impacts due to global supply chain disruptions,led to economic contractions around the world.In effe
60、ct,nearly all agency work and direct recruitment markets declined in 2020,many of them at double-digit rates.The decline in the global MSP market was primarily driven by the Europe,Middle East and Africa(EMEA)region and the Americas,with the smaller Asia Pacific(APAC)region having seen an expansion
61、in the market in 2020.RPO markets declined across all three regions.Growth in outplacement was seen across all large markets in 2020,with the US market experi-encing particularly strong growth,driving much of the positive evolution of the sector globally.Global private employment services industry 2

79、he subsequent economic crisis,all agency work markets in the region have contracted drastically in 2020.Most agency workers in Europe are employed in the services sector,which was shut down for a significant length of time in 2020 during the various phases of containment measures,resulting in these

81、2 while the Canadian market declined by 16.1%.Turning to the Asia and Pacific region,agency work markets have been more resilient during the pan-demic.The Japanese agency work market grew by 1.9%in 2020.This is partly due to the strength of the manufacturing sector,but also due to regulatory changes
82、 stipulating equal pay for agency workers taking effect.As a consequence of the salary increases,agencies rates and turnover were inflated.In Australia,the agency work market size,while having remained stable in Euro terms,actually expanded in constant currency terms.While 2020 brought about major d
83、eclines in the agency work sector around the world,2021 is marked by a steady recovery of those losses.Many of the largest markets which saw a contraction in 2020 have reached pre-crisis levels again as of Q4 2021.These include Canada,France,Italy,Sweden and the United States.The Dutch,German and Sw

87、 14|WEC Economic Report 2022HR SERVICESIn 2020,the global weighted average penetration rate of the agency work sector stood at 1.5%,a decline from 1.6%in 2019.This rate represents the share of agency work in overall employment and can be subject to various factors.Labour market regulation typically
88、plays an important role,as more restrictive policies in terms of hiring flexible workers tend to reduce the share of agency workers.Some countries can be characterised as having a more liberal approach to labour market regulation and hiring and firing,weighing the trade-off between efficiency and re
89、sponsiveness in labour market transitions on the one hand and job protection on the other.Another factor can be the maturity of the agency work sector within a country.A higher penetration rate typically indicates an industry that has moved closer to maturity,while low penetration rates showcase to
90、an extent the potential future growth of the sector in the country.Due to the flexible nature of agency work,sector employment tends to drop before overall employment during an economic contraction.This explains the decline of the share of agency work employment in the year of the COVID-19 pandemic
91、and economic crisis.In particular,agency workers currently still have potentially reduced access to the much used short-time working-/or furlough schemes,which prevented massive increases in the number of unemployed,specifically in Europe.This could however also mean that the real share of agency wo
92、rk within actual hours worked among employed people is underestimated for 2020,as employment was artificially kept under control in many countries.The Americas saw the larg-est decline in the regional penetration rate,due to a massive contraction in the number of agency workers in Brazil,and a fall

102、the year 2020 was marked by high uncertainty in terms of the evolution of containment measures,employers were reluctant to create open-ended positions for recruiters to fill.The United States,Australia and China were the largest markets in the direct recruitment sector in terms of value,together gen
103、-erating 57%of the global sectors turnover in 2020.Much of the decline in the global market size is attributed to the sharp contraction in the United States,which saw a drop of 29%in 2020.While the United States remained the largest direct recruitment market,its share of global turnover dropped from
104、 one-third to one-fourth between 2019 and 2020.APAC remained the best performing region,with Australia,China and Japans combined direct recruitment market con-tributing 39%to the global market size.Japan was the only market which did not contract during the year of the COVID-19 pandemic,while Austra

107、VICESCareer management grows due to counter-cyclical natureThe global career management sectors market size expanded by 14%in 2020,reaching 2.2 billion.Career management is the only segment among the five services of the private employment services industry to have grown in 2020.Outplacement and car
108、eer transition services,which represent the majority of activity and turnover in the sector,support companies and individuals when employees need to be laid off,by guiding and preparing them for the next step in their careers.Being countercyclical,demand for such services tends to increase during ec
109、onomic downturns.Amid large waves of layoffs resulting from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic,career management services were therefore much sought after in 2020,explaining the expansion of the sector.Much of the growth in the global market size was driven by a significant expansion in the US mar
110、ket for outplacement,which represents more than one-third of the global turnover of the sector.In the United States,the government spent relatively fewer resources on keeping workers employed through the use of short-time working schemes,unlike in many European countries.Consequently,the number of l
111、ayoffs was much higher and demand for outplacement services grew faster.The US market was up around 30%in 2020.While the market grew relatively more in terms of the volume of workers who received outplacement services in the United States,high demand in some specific sectors resulted in shorter tran
112、sition programmes,as people needed to be moved to new jobs quickly.Shorter programmes,as a consequence,resulted in a slightly muted increase in the value of the market.Together with the US market,the French and Dutch career management markets generated nearly two-thirds of the global market size.Mos
113、t large European outplacement markets also saw pronounced growth in 2020,albeit less strong than in the United States.Massive investment in short-time working schemes kept the number of people being laid off under control,resulting in a relatively slower increase in demand for outplacement services.
114、European markets grew by around 8%in 2020.Note:Based on estimations by members of the World Employment Confederations Career Management Task Force.19|WEC Economic Report 2022HR SERVICESMSP markets decline in Americas and EMEA,but hold steady in APAC Source:Staffing Industry Analysts.Managed Services

117、region is Europe,the Middle East and Africa(EMEA),generating one-third of global spend.Nearly half of the regions MSP spend was generated in the UK,which was also the second largest MSP market globally.The EMEA region was the hardest hit in terms of MSP market size,down by 5%in 2020.Around one-tenth
118、 of global MSP spend was generated in the Asia and Pacific region(APAC),with Australia and India being the strongest markets.The APAC region held steady in 2020,up by 1%compared to 2019.Despite the contraction in 2020 due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic,MSP markets across all regions experie
119、nced pronounced growth over the past years,with the global market spend remaining up by 12%in the three years between 2017 and 2020.In particular,the smaller APAC region expanded rapidly,up by 29%in that period.The more mature,larger regions grew by 8%(Americas)and 16%(EMEA)during that time.Firms wh
120、ich specialise in MSP are third-party service providers taking over a client companys contingent workforce management.The major share of MSP spend(71%in 2020 according to Staffing Industry Analysts)comprises temporary employees and independent contractors-meaning that the spend of a large part of MS
121、P programmes can,in effect,be attributed to revenues from the agency work sector.This share has been decreasing over the past years.The remaining share of MSP spend is raised by statement of work and/or outsourcing activities by the service provider.20|WEC Economic Report 2022HR SERVICESRecruitment

125、 still up 13%compared to 2018.Across the different regions,RPO markets were also still by double-digits.Similar to direct recruitment services,RPO is primarily focused on filling open-ended vacancies.During the first year of the pandemic,companies were more reluctant to create new open-ended vacanci
126、es in times of high uncertainty.In effect,RPO and direct recruitment markets contracted more than MSP and agency work markets.RPO is a service whereby a third-party provider takes over a clients recruiting department.Going beyond the provision of a contingent workforce,RPO providers characteristical

159、sented in this report is for the calendar year 2020,unless stated otherwise.Sources vary depending on the data,although the majority of the figures are collected by the World Employment Confederation from its national federation members.This is primarily the case for the agency work market.Some nati
160、onal federations gather data directly from their respective members,whereas others collect data from public sources or research partner institutions.The World Employment Confederation also partners with Staffing Industry Analysts(SIA),allowing for a more complete assessment of the industry across th
161、e various HR ser-vices(e.g.MSP,RPO).Whenever a figure did not come directly from members of the World Employment Confederation,it is indicated throughout the report.For the calculation of the total global market size of the private employment services industry,five service segments have been include
162、d:agency work,direct recruitment,MSP,RPO and career management ser-vices.Due to the fact that a major share of MSP activi-ties fall into the agency work category,there exists the risk of double counting sales revenue figures.This is especially true,since the sources used to gather sales revenue figu
163、res differ for the two service segments in question.To minimise the extent of double counting,a certain share of total MSP sales revenues was sub-tracted and attributed to the total agency work sales revenues.This share is estimated by Staffing Industry Analysts to be around 71%.It must be noted tha
164、t some figures presented in this report may be underestimating the true picture of the global industry,since the World Employment Confederation does not have members in every coun-try providing statistics.This is specifically the case for the number of agencies and internal staff.Note also that a la
