In this blog series, Tom Hadley, an independent workforce and campaigns consultant, shares his reflections from the World Employment Conference 2022 on how the HR services industry can bridge the gap between worker and employer expectations in a more than ever changing world of work.

The overriding theme of the 2022 edition of the World Employment Conference was ‘Bridging the Gap’ – particularly with regards to worker and employer expectations. The sessions explored how the HR services industry – and the broader employment ecosystem they are part of – are addressing this challenge through skilling, career guidance, support to vulnerable groups like the youth or refugees, technology and new management models.

This blog series offers you a digest of the insights and the collective energy generated at the annual gathering for the recruitment and employment sector.
