ZURICH, Feb 25 (Reuters) - Employers are navigating the ongoing trade uncertainties and pressing ahead with hiring, Adecco ADEN.S CEO Denis Machuel said on Wednesday.

"They know that uncertainty is around, and what I hear from my peers is that now they get on with it," Machuel told reporters after the staffing company reported its fourth quarter results.

This trend supported temporary staffing particularly as employers wanted more flexibility, he added.
