In 2023, Australia experienced its lowest unemployment rate in nearly 50 years. This has introduced a new hurdle for businesses to overcome – the intensifying competition for talent, making it increasingly challenging to attract new staff.
To address this issue and find a viable solution, an alternative labour strategy has emerged: leveraging the global workforce. This approach has gained popularity among both small and large businesses, as it provides an effective means to tackle the talent scarcity. By adopting this strategy, your business can tap into a diverse pool of international professionals, complementing your existing Australian talent with a wealth of varied perspectives and experiences.
Through insightful discussions and practical guidance, we will explore the step-by-step process of incorporating international professionals into your team.
By attending this workshop, you will learn about:
- How to access the global workforce
- Strategies available to support a global workforce, including navigating visas, sponsorships and independent pathways
- How to compliment your Australian workforce with global talent
- Preparing for having global talent in your business
While this workshop is open to everyone, the content will be particularly valuable for businesses working in the IT & data, mining/resources/construction, or allied health space.
