As employers, we place a high value on what our customers appreciate,” said Markus Ley, managing director of Hays Temp Germany.

The skills most in demand are engineers, equating to three quarters of the 2,000 skilled temporary employees Hays have recruited. Other areas of specialism include IT, finance, and construction. Temporary workers working for Hays chose temporary employment in order to gain experience in various companies and on different projects.
