Fondazione Consulenti per il Lavoro

What Fondazione Consulenti per il Lavoro does

Fondazione Consulenti per il Lavoro is a non-profit foundation (Fondazione) and the official Employment Agency (Agenzia per il Lavoro) of the Consiglio Nazionale dell'Ordine dei Consulenti del Lavoro. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Rome, it operates as the national service arm of the Italian Labor Consultants' professional order, delivering employment services, vocational training, internship programs, active labor market policies, and competency certification through a delegated network of more than 2,700 operational offices and over 5,000 operators covering all 20 Italian regions. Its service portfolio includes job intermediation (Servizi di Intermediazione), structured internships (Tirocini Formativi), active labor policy implementation (Politiche Attive del Lavoro), professional training courses in Lazio, Lombardy, and Veneto, competency identification and certification, and access to interprofessional training funds (FonARCom, Fondo Professioni). The foundation also runs a mobile outreach program ('Il Lavoro Viaggia con Noi') and offers temporary staffing through a partnership with Openjobmetis.

The foundation's core technology stack centers on FLLab (Fondazione Lavoro Laboratorio), an information system that enables Labor Consultants across the delegate network to share professional profiles and job opportunities and to match labor supply with demand. It also provides access to SIISL (Sistema Informativo per l'Inclusione Sociale e Lavorativa), the national government's inclusion and labor integration platform, and operates a mobile laboratory with VR-based safety training and gamified competency testing.

Commercially, the foundation operates a freemium model: services for job seekers — intermediation, internships, active labor policies, and skills certification — are provided free of charge, funded through public programs including GOL (Garanzia Occupabilità dei Lavoratori) under PNRR, Garanzia Giovani, and regional programs funded by the European Social Fund. Apprenticeship training is free for SMEs but paid by large enterprises. The foundation collects an annual delegate membership fee of 100 EUR (excluding VAT), referral fees on successful job placements routed through the FLLab network, and fees on funded training delivered through interprofessional funds. Customer segments span job seekers and unemployed individuals, Italian SMEs, apprentices and their employers, students and young people, and regional public administrations across Italy.
