employee engagement

A key lesson that emerged from the past two and a half years is that employees, particularly younger workers, want more meaning from their jobs. Millennials and Gen Z are at the forefront of a movement to find greater satisfaction and happiness in life and at work.

So employers must determine how they evolve their corporate culture and workforce strategy to accommodate this phenomenon.

values alignment

The acceleration of the social justice movement, growing concerns about climate change, and workplace diversity and inclusion are increasingly becoming top of mind for workers and organisations. For many younger workers, their priority is purpose over a paycheck.

They are forcing businesses to put meaning and values at the heart of their work, aligning their work with their convictions.

empowerment

The economic environment puts the power in jobseekers’ hands as they can demand what they want from employers when they want it. Understanding and leveraging the power of financial and non-monetary incentives are vital in winning the loyalties of job seekers and employees alike in a highly competitive talent market.

flexibility

Providing employees with a choice of when and where to work has emerged as one of the significant shifts in the labour market over the past two and a half years. And flexible working is here to stay with the 2022 Randstad Employer Brand research, revealing the number one priority for employees is for their employer to offer flexible working arrangements.

self-improvement

Technology has changed how we live and work, and the future of work will be driven by technology. To keep pace with rapid digitalisation, employees need to embark on their journey of continuous learning.

Coaching, upskilling and reskilling will take centre stage for those wanting to reach their true potential. Everyone can take control of their self-improvement goals.
