October 16, 2013

Adecco retains its position as the world’s largest staffing firm, followed by Randstad and then ManpowerGroup, the same order as last year, according to the newly released list of largest global staffing firms by Staffing Industry Analysts. The top three firms have a 17 percent market share.

The 119 firms that made the list had annual revenues in access of $300 million and represent 45 percent of the market. The U.S. had the largest number of staffing firms on the list with 49, followed by the U.K. with 21 and Japan with 11.
