The Representative Committee's purpose is to steer the trade association on behalf of all the members and prioritise the implementation of additional services. They play a critical role in ensuring that our strategy and business plans are focused on the needs of our members and the outsourcing sector. They discuss, debate, and agree on activities to enhance and improve OutSource Europe's services.
Following the introduction of OutSource Europe to APSCo, members stand for an initial period before the committee is elected by our members and elections thereafter are held every two years. Any OutSource member can stand. A chair is then elected by the Committee and usually serves for two years. The Rep Comm meet bi-monthly.
