Research into temporary agency work in Central and Eastern Europe has revealed for the first time a comprehensive picture for the sector in the region and identified a strong potential for development. It reveals that temporary agency work provides more work opportunities for more people, already providing over 181,000 jobs in full-time equivalent on a daily basis in 2008 in the 7 countries covered by the report.

The report, commissioned by Eurociett to Interconnection Consulting, focuses on Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia - all countries for whom Temporary Agency Work is relatively new, and whose markets have only opened up in the past decade, especially after joining the EU. While the sector had enjoyed growth in these markets in recent years it is now suffering in the economic downturn with markets contracting.
