Welcome to Manpower Group's Third Quarter Earnings Results Conference Call. You'll be put in listen-only mode until the question and answer time begins. This call is being recorded. If you care to drop off now, please do so. I would like to turn the call over to Manpower Group's Chairman and CEO, Mr. Jonas Prezing. Sir, you may begin.

Welcome to the Third Quarter Conference Call for 2023. Our Chief Financial Officer, Jack McGinnis, is with me today. For your convenience, we have included our prepared remarks within the investor relations sections of our website at manpowergroup.com. I will start by going through some of the highlights of the quarter. Then Jack will go through the third quarter results and guidance for the fourth quarter of 2023. And I'll then share some concluding thoughts before we start our Q&A session. Jack will now cover the safe harbor language.
