Introduction

Differentiating and diversifying workforce strategies to create the right combination of skills, workforce mix and labor markets will help organizations face rapidly evolving markets. The Total Workforce Index™ (TWI) provides a vital edge in the race for talent focusing short, medium and long-term investments on labor markets with the most potential in sectors or skill sets that will shape fast-changing business environments.

This year’s TWI provides clarity across far-reaching challenges: rising demand, cost of living increases, wage pressure, continued low unemployment rates, changing demographics, the impact of regulatory change on cost and availability of talent and intense competition for skilled labor. As always, the TWI accounts for geopolitical realities, although it is worth noting that the workforce impacts of the Israel-Hamas war are not yet fully known.

As organizations focus on growing and scaling their businesses, ManpowerGroup Talent Solutions can partner with you to define the right workforce mix and help you attract, assess, develop and retain talent.
