This presentation uncovers some of the most pressing operational issues in workforce management and their fit within the broader strategies in light of new challenges in internal and external labour markets. Based on an approach that is not only targeted at investigating impacts of policy changes (including current and future impacts of COVID), evaluating regional labour markets and their limitations, internal workforce structures and designing transition plans to address functional changes but also testing various models of engaging Australian industry and internal communications to support workers through future changes as well as implementing innovative approaches impacting social behaviours and improving workforce motivation.
