Topics pertain to recruitment and retention in the wake of “The Great Reshuffle.”
The survey reveals keen insights into Canadian organizations’ current views on skills and talent gaps in the labour market; hiring underrepresented groups as part of equity, diversity and inclusion strategies; the importance of investing in career development; and how employers perceive the services of career development professionals.
For the Career Development in the Canadian Workplace: National Business Survey, CERIC surveyed 500 Canadian executives in more than 11 industries including service, retail, hospitality, construction and manufacturing. This is the second iteration of the survey, providing comparability to our 2013 survey.[/vc_column_text][vc_message message_box_color=”warning” icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-solid fa-bell” css=””]In the news: The Great Reshuffle: Canadian study reveals 81 per cent of Canadian executives having difficulty filling positions and confirm industry-wide skills gap (February 1, 2022)[/vc_message][accordions]
