Evroproces vs Adecco
Both agencies place workers across Europe, but they are built for different jobs. Adecco is one of the world's largest generalist HR groups; Evroproces is a specialist in posted skilled-trades crews. This page compares the two on facts, so you can pick the right one for your project.
Key takeaways
- Adecco is a global generalist: staffing across most sectors, with services from payroll to employer branding; the Adecco Group reports about 2 million associates on assignment every day.
- Evroproces is a specialist: welders, electricians, pipefitters, locksmiths and general labour, posted to projects in 10 European countries.
- For high-volume, multi-sector programmes or white-collar temporary roles, Adecco is usually the better fit.
- For posted skilled-trades crews with A1 certificates, accommodation, transport and payroll handled end to end, Evroproces is built exactly for that.

Competitor facts last verified: July 4, 2026
| Dimension | Evroproces | Adecco |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | Skilled trades only: welding, electrical, pipefitting, locksmithing, general labour. | Generalist across sectors — from production and logistics to office, IT and finance roles.[1] |
| Cross-border model | Posted workers under EU Directive 96/71/EC: A1 certificates, host-country notifications, payroll and accommodation handled in-house. | International mobility service for hiring foreign candidates, including documentation, work permits and integration.[2] |
| Markets | 10 European countries, with a focus on Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Nordics. | Adecco's Slovenian site states the group operates in 62 countries with 3,800 locations.[1] |
| Scale | About 660 active workers across five trades — deliberately small enough for direct oversight of every placement. | The Adecco Group reports about 2 million associates on assignment every day and 100,000+ clients.[3] |
| Service model | Direct senior-level contact; one team runs vetting, documents, travel and housing from brief to demobilisation. | Branch and account-team model with local offices, technology-driven processes and enterprise programmes.[1] |
| Services beyond staffing | Accommodation, transport to site, PPE and induction logistics are part of the standard mobilisation package. | Payroll processing, HR outsourcing, student services, employer branding, and training and development.[2] |
When Adecco is the better choice
An honest comparison has to say when the other side wins. Choose Adecco over Evroproces if any of the following describes your situation:
- You need hundreds of temporary workers across many sectors or countries under a single framework agreement.
- The roles are white-collar — office, IT, finance or customer service — which Evroproces does not place at all.
- You want HR services beyond staffing: payroll outsourcing, employer branding, training programmes, or student work in Slovenia.
- Your project is in a market outside the 10 European countries Evroproces serves.
When Evroproces is the better choice
Evroproces does one thing and goes deep on it. Choose Evroproces over a generalist if this is your situation:
- You need certified welders, electricians or pipefitters for an industrial project — every candidate is vetted against the destination country's certification requirements.
- Cross-border compliance is the risk you care about: A1 certificates, host-country notifications and posted-worker rules are handled in-house, documented and audit-ready.
- You want crew logistics included: accommodation near the site, transport, PPE and induction come with the placement, not as extras.
- You want one senior contact who owns the engagement from brief to demobilisation, instead of a ticket queue.
Is Evroproces an alternative to Adecco?
For posted skilled-trades crews in Europe — welders, electricians, pipefitters, locksmiths and general labour — yes. For multi-sector volume programmes, office roles or HR services like employer branding, Adecco's breadth is the point and Evroproces is not a substitute.
What does Evroproces include that a generalist typically prices separately?
The standard Evroproces mobilisation covers A1 certificates, host-country posting notifications, payroll, accommodation near the worksite, transport to site, PPE and induction logistics. With generalist agencies the staffing itself is the product and site logistics are usually the client's job — check the scope line by line when you compare offers.
When should I choose Adecco instead?
When volume, sector breadth or geography outgrow a specialist: hundreds of roles across sectors, white-collar and office profiles, services like payroll outsourcing or student staffing, or markets outside the 10 European countries Evroproces serves.
Do Evroproces and Adecco compete directly?
They overlap on industrial temporary staffing in Europe, and both can source workers across borders. The centre of gravity differs: Adecco's model is built around breadth, local branches and enterprise HR services; Evroproces is built around posted skilled-trades crews with compliance and site logistics as the product.
