The office–administrative section council advises the ASA board of directors and staff on issues and priorities specific to office, clerical, and administrative staffing firms.
The council also develops sector-specific resources for ASA membership on an as-needed basis as well as coordinates professional development and networking opportunities for members in the office-administrative section.
The office administrative section serves firms that place secretaries, general office clerks, receptionists, administrative assistants, word-processing and data entry operators, cashiers, and other office administrative workers.
Goals & Priorities
The office-administrative section council will explore resources, education, and networking opportunities around topics that are most pressing to office, clerical, and administrative staffing firms. Potential topics to explore include:
- Using research and data to anticipate trends in the office, clerical, and administrative staffing sector
- Engaging overlooked groups, such as retirees, to help fill the talent gap
- Exploring metrics and KPIs relevant to recruiters in the office, clerical, and administrative sector
- The section council will plan at least 2 educational webinars as well as hold bi-monthly section networking calls.
