Social Responsibility - Take a Look Around at how Manpower is making a meaningful difference Manpower Inc. has a deep heritage of operating at the highest level of integrity. Our strong commitment to responsible business practices is reflected in everything we do - from the transparency of our communications with shareholders to the unparalleled benefits that we offer to our temporary employees and contractors. We strive to provide a great work environment for our employees and to be a beacon of integrity for our clients.
Manpower’s approach to social responsibility is driven by our Global Values that determine the way in which we do business. We are committed to: respect for people, clients and community and the role of work in their lives; sharing our knowledge and expertise to develop sustainable workforce practices throughout the world; and striving for excellence through innovation to develop socially inclusive working environments for the long-term.
Manpower's business is, in itself, socially responsible because everything we do is geared toward connecting people with jobs, which enables individuals to support themselves and their families. Our free training programs allow all of our permanent, contract and temporary employees to improve their skills and grow in their careers, thereby improving their long-term career potential. Our outplacement services ensure that, when a client has to eliminate jobs, it is done in a manner that enables individuals to receive the support, training and career counseling they require in finding their way back to employment.
We strive to be socially responsible in every aspect of our business; however, we focus our resources primarily on where we can have the most impact, in creating a bridge to employment for disadvantaged individuals through various workforce development programs around the world. We are also dedicated to increasing awareness of, and opposition to, labor practices that exploit individuals, particularly those that are vulnerable.

Strategic Workforce Planning in 2008: Career Progression AnalysisWorkforce planning consists of aligning an organization’s financial and strategic planning processes with human capital, ensuring the right people are in the right place at the right time. However, with increasing competition for talent, organizations face continued challenges in sourcing new supplies of labor to replace departing employees or fulfill growth expectations. As such, more effective management of the internal workforce can decrease the reliance on scarce external talent and improve the flow of internal labor into key roles or job families.
One such management tool is Career Progression Analysis, a technique quickly proving to be a successful weapon in analyzing internal marketplaces for inefficiencies or potential gaps, tracking the movement of workforce segments through the organization, and identifying hot spots within current career paths.
During this webinar, Jeff Higgins and Paige Menge will discuss why career progression analysis is so important to an organization, showing techniques and real world examples of how the tool is foundational for successful workforce planning.
