CIETT

The International Confederation of Private Employment Agencies, Ciett represents the interests of agency work businesses.

The voice for labour choice

Ciett represents and promotes the interests of Agency Work (AW) worldwide. It brings together 40 national Federations and unites six of the largest multinational staffing companies as well as tens of thousands of SMEs. Ciett members consist of private companies operating in the HR fields of AW, permanent recruitment, interim management, executive search, outplacement and training.

Through their network of 170,000 branches, with a staff of 819,000 people, Ciett members employ 9.9 million workers (full time equivalent) on a daily basis. Ciett is a unique platform to develop a constructive dialogue, address relevant issues and influence political agendas.

Ciett engages with key stakeholders on behalf of the industry to discuss appropriate legal solutions, present the industry’s positions and to participate in any initiatives that aim to create the most suitable and fair legal environment for the industry to operate in. The aim of the organisation is to uphold the sustainable development of the industry and to contribute to the growth of the economies in which its members operate. In practice, Ciett wants to shape a more favourable environment, especially by working to ensure appropriate regulation of the sector.

The organisation also puts a lot of effort into improving the understanding of the reality of agency work, by showcasing the industry’s positive contribution to the labour market, including freedom of choice, and promoting its quality standards.
