2021年4月22日,日内瓦: 在极度不确定和快速数字化的时代, closing the gap between the supply and demand of skills and ensuring people have the right skills to be employable and perform their work well, 比以往任何时候都更具挑战性. To help business leaders better understand how a strong skills development strategy creates business value while simultaneously generating positive value for people and society, today, the 正规博彩十大网站(WBCSD) and the Global Apprenticeship Network (GAN Global) launched a guide for Chief Human Resource Officers (CHROs) on 可持续工作世界的技能战略.

新技术, 社会经济的发展, shifting expectations of 工人 and disruptive events like COVID, 是否将工作世界置于不断变化的状态中. 没有合适的技能, 工人, 特别是那些处境不利群体(妇女), 年轻的, 少数民族, 低技能工人), will find it more and more difficult to find the work they need to earn a living for themselves and their families, 实现他们的愿望,最终生活得很好. 甚至在COVID之前, 商业领袖们关心的是寻找, 保持, 培养现代社会所需的人才, 随着我们开始从大流行中恢复, many businesses will lack the relevant skills needed to succeed in the new world of work. This brings Human Resource (HR) executives into the ‘eye of the storm’, reinforcing their strategic role in ensuring business continuity, resilience and growth while contributing to a future where both business and society don’t just react and adapt to disruption, 但茁壮成长.

作为其 未来工作项目, WBCSD partnered with GAN Global to understand why business action on skills development is important not just to deliver on business objectives, 也是为了实现一个更有凝聚力、更平等的社会. WBCSD and GAN Global explored which types of corporate skills development strategies and pipelines organizations usually rely on, as well as which ones don’t feature as prominently in their workforce strategies, and set out to help companies assess how to choose the most appropriate strategy to respond to business and societal needs.

总结指南的目的, Filippo Veglio,人事部总经理 & WBCSD的社会 said: “Work is the engine at the center of our economies and skills are its most important ingredient. This guide brings to life the importance of skills development strategies in future-proofing businesses while simultaneously creating a more sustainable future of work.”

Building on interviews with HR professionals and real-life case studies from over 16 organizations, the guide aims to inspire CHROs and HR decision-makers more broadly to strengthen their companies’ skills development approach by presenting a wide range of effective skills strategies and by increasing CHRO’s awareness of the various pipelines – in particular less well-known ones - that they can activate to develop and attract talent.

The guide sketches a number of actions that CHROs can take to set their companies on a path to developing skills strategies for the new world of work:

  • 长期考虑你的技能发展策略;
  • Analyze your company’s situation and choose the best suited solution(s);
  • 授权并吸引你的员工;
  • 建立伙伴关系和协作;
  • Develop programs that promote diversity, inclusion and access.

Nazrene Mannie, GAN执行董事 added: “GAN Global is a proud contributing partner to the CHRO Guide: Skills strategies for a sustainable world of work. 作为一个全球, business-driven alliance through which private sector companies, development organizations and thought-leaders work together to drive the future of work agenda, we see the CHRO guide as a valuable tool offering practical advice and examples of best practice from leading organizations across the world.”

在本指南发布之后, WBCSD和GAN邀请公司参与讨论, share their challenges and solutions to skills development with their peers and elevate the role of forward-looking skills development in their engagement with employees and future talent, 业务合作伙伴, 教育提供者和其他利益相关者.
