including statements regarding labor demand in
certain regions, countries and industries, economic

(SEC), including the information under the heading

whose information is incorporated herein by

Unique: It is unparalleled in its size, scope, longevity and area of focus. The Survey is the most extensive, forward-looking employment
survey in the world, asking employers to forecast employment over the next quarter. In contrast, other surveys and studies focus on
retrospective data to report on what occurred in the past.
Independent: The Survey is conducted with a representative sample of employers from throughout the countries and territories in
which it is conducted. The survey participants are not derived from ManpowerGroup’s customer base.
Robust: The Survey is based on interviews with 40,374 public and private employers across 42 countries and territories to measure
anticipated employment trends each quarter. This sample allows for analysis to be performed across specific sectors and regions to provide
more detailed information.
Focused: For more than six decades, the Survey has derived all its information from a single question: “How do you anticipate total
employment at your location to change in the three months to the end of September 2024 as compared to the current quarter?”
Survey Methodology: The methodology used to collect NEO data has been digitized in 42 markets for the Q3 2024 report.
Survey responses were collected from April 1-30, 2024. Both, the question asked and the respondent profile remain unchanged. The size
of the organization and sector are standardized across all countries and territories to allow international comparisons.
