The HR Meetings of AfricSearch, a key player in recruitment and HR performance consulting in Africa, began this Wednesday, November 6 in Dakar. Placed under the theme “AfricSearch HR Best Practices”, this first day, in conference format, highlighted the theme of “Quality of Life and Working Conditions (QVCT) and employee well-being, a new priority HR”.
Various topics were explored, including the digitalization of HR administrative processes, teleworking, management by objectives, as well as the management of inclusion and diversity.
