ING: Growth in temporary employment in 2025

The past few years have been challenging for the temporary employment sector. After a period of decline, there’s finally some good news: according to ING, the demand for temporary workers is expected to increase slightly in 2025. This means the job market is slowly but surely picking up again.

More demand in a recovering economy

ING predicts a 1.5% growth in temporary employment hours in 2025. After two years of decline, the economy is showing signs of improvement. Companies are starting to scale up their activities again, leading to a renewed demand for temporary workers. This is a welcome development for anyone looking to work in this sector.

Stricter regulations and more security

A key factor in this trend is the stricter enforcement of regulations against false self-employment. Many jobs that were previously done by freelancers (ZZP’ers) no longer fall under that category. As a result, companies are increasingly choosing to hire through temporary employment or staffing agencies. This not only provides more security for temporary workers but also makes you a more attractive candidate in the job market.

Industries with the most opportunities

There are plenty of opportunities for temporary workers, especially in sectors like production. On the other hand, the peak in the delivery sector—which was crucial during the pandemic—is now fading. That’s why it’s important to consider where your skills will be most valuable.

Challenges that remain

Despite the positive outlook, the labor market remains tight. Staff shortages and a mismatch between supply and demand continue to make finding the right job placement a challenge. However, these difficulties also highlight the increasing value of temporary workers.

What does this mean for you?

These developments offer a great opportunity for you as a temporary worker to position yourself in a recovering job market. Whether you're just starting out or have experience in the industry, there are plenty of opportunities in a sector that is constantly evolving.
