The World Employment Confederation is the voice of the private employment services industry at the global level, representing national federations as well as workforce solutions companies from across the world. Founded in 1967 under the name of CIETT, it has evolved to cover today a wide range of HR services, including agency work, direct recruitment, career management, Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) and Managed Service Provider (MSP).
The World Employment Confederation works to broaden recognition of the positive economic and social role that the employment industry plays in enabling work, adaptation, security and prosperity.
The World Employment Confederation is a non-profit association established under Belgian law. Our constitution establishes the General Assembly, the Board, and the standing committees as main bodies of the Confederation.
The World Employment Confederation is committed to promoting international fair recruitment practices and to upholding high quality standards. To this end, the World Employment Confederation participates in several international projects and has developed its own Code of Conduct.
The Code of Conduct defines the common principles and values shared by all Members of the World Employment Confederation when offering their services to companies and job-seekers. WEC also has a dedicated Code of Ethical Principles to be followed by its members in their use of Artificial Intelligence.
Every member of the World Employment Confederation is requested to adhere to the Code of Conduct and to promote its principles towards all relevant stakeholders.
The World Employment Confederation is managed by a team based in Brussels, Belgium.
