Eventually, the pilot project will become a major digital platform where fast-growing companies in the Netherlands will cooperate in the area of personnel needs.Initially, the seven internationally operating companies exchanged approximately two hundred employees in a variety of functions. They remain with their original employer and take voluntary part in the pilot. For example, people with specific knowledgeare being exchanged, or employees who are not necessarily requiredon full-time basis.

According to Director Leendert-Jan Visser of MKB in the Netherlands, the shortage of qualified people is one of the biggest obstacles to growth in companies.

“These entrepreneurs receive on their plate all kinds of HR challenges in a much faster rate and in a shorter time than other companies. Now they all have to solve these problems. With this pilot we are creatingstaff mobility and we facilitate that”, says Visser.

The first phase of the pilot extends to the summer. After an evaluation, the number of participating companies will be expandedfurther.
