More small firms will choose to formulate an employer value proposition (EVP) in the year ahead as the competition for talent will continue to hot up, says one HR expert.

Niamh O’Brien, director of BDO Talent Management, says smaller Irish firms will follow the lead of larger corporates by creating an EVP, gathering their key selling points for employees, such as staff training and career development, flexible working and their commitments to work-life balance and employee wellbeing.
