Capacity-building of Resilient Employers in Hungary The overarching aim of the CORE project is to improve the capacities of the Confederation of Hungarian Employers and Industrialists (MGYOSZ-BusinessHungary), as well as to mitigate the negative impact of the COVID-crisis on the biggest Hungarian employers’ organisation. The implementation of the project is the sole responsibility of BusinessHungary, BusinessEurope is the member of the project-consortium as an Associated partner. The Work Packages of the project were designed in line with the outcome of the needs’ analysis: Work Package 1: Project Management Work Package 2: Improving Human Resources and Administrative Capacities Work Package 3: Building Strong and Efficient Employers’ Organisations Work Package 4: Advocacy Through Communication Strategy The COVID crisis made a great impact on those member federations which organise their membership on the territorial domain, and the primary aim of the membership building activity in the project is to reinforce the regional activity of the Applicant. To support this work, the Applicant intends to prepare a survey, which gives the possibility to map out the impact of the COVID crisis on the different Regions of Hungary (mainly focusing on the labour market). This survey will be a good basis to initiate a debate about the territorial differences of the Hungarian economy (which is a key area of Country Report of the EU Semester), as well as it promotes the regional level advocacy work as well. The COVID-crisis demonstrated the importance of being able to consult with and to better understand the needs of your regional members in order that BusinessHungary could feed into initiatives taken during the crisis and also now as part of the recovery phase.
