Welliba and Skillbee Partner to Support International Recruitment of Blue-Collar Workers
We are excited to formally announce Welliba’s partnership with Skillbee. Skillbee is a platform for migrant workers, mostly focussed on blue-collar workers, and dedicated to supporting their training, recruitment, and continuous professional development internationally. The partnership will help Skillbee to apply an analytical and structured approach to assessing the life impact for blue-collar workers when moving from one country to another in pursuit of a job.
Focussed on providing trust, transparency, and efficiency to international recruiting, Skillbee has 1 million users across India and the Middle East. Over 35,000 companies across the Middle East have used it to hire international talent across borders. Top brands such as Choithrams and Transguard have hired workers through Skillbee.
By partnering with Welliba, Skillbee intends to provide an analytical and structured approach to assessing the life impact for blue-collar workers who migrate in pursuit of a job. By doing so, Skillbee aims to offer relevant recommendations to its stakeholders - top companies, governments, and workers, engaged in international recruitment. Welliba’s approach will also help Skillbee to offer better-targeted products and services for these workers with regards for their experience, well-being, health, and happiness in the long term.
For its leading work in international recruitment services, Skillbee has been featured in Forbes and other media like Arabian Business Times in the Middle East, and TVN in Poland.
Ujjawal Chauhan, one of Skillbee’s founders explains:
“Gautham Vinjamuri and I started the company after observing a lack of transparent and ethical practices in international recruitment. At the same time, we witnessed a rising skilled workforce shortage across a wide range of countries. Our approach quickly caught the attention of employers and employees and when the media started to report on our company, that process intensified. We have recently expanded to Europe to serve companies across Poland, Lithuania, Germany, and Finland hiring blue-collar talent from Asia, while also offering better aspirational opportunities to these blue-collar migrant workers.”
David Barrett, CEO at Welliba adds:
"Welliba is committed to empowering individuals with personalised insights and learning resources to unlock a better experience at work and life and increase learning effectiveness, well-being, performance and professional growth. Skillbee matches employers and employees across different countries and cultures. There is a great demand for talent across the world and organisations are interested in hiring international talent, but different kinds of talent thrive in different kinds of contexts. International migration can make predicting a good match complicated. Welliba’s approach provides important additional insights to employers and employees, which helps to match people with companies that they will thrive in.”
