2011 Human Resources Study Generates Interest
The online surveys launched at the end of April have generated a great deal of interest from both employers and employees. At time of writing, approximately 700 employers and nearly 400 employees had taken part. More people are encouraged to take part to ensure that the perspectives gathered are representative of the diversity, scope and breadth of the supply chain in Canada. Earlier this week, the learning-system-provider survey was released. To participate, visit the Council’s site at www,supplychaincanada.org. Don’t miss out on your chance to win one of 6 iPads. The employer and employee surveys will be available until June 17.
Have You Considered Hiring a Recent Graduate?
Many employers are facing a labour shortage, particularly at this time of year as summer holiday schedules kick in and activity picks up in the retail market. Consider contacting the career centre at your local college, cégep or university to access a pool of well-educated and talented supply chain professionals. These young people can be the answer to your immediate challenges, and may prove themselves to be long-term solutions to your overall succession planning challenges. Access the Council’s education and training compendium, at www.supplychaincanada.org/en/compendium, to identify those institutions that might be appropriate in your community. Use the programs and courses that have been accredited by the Council (see our National Accreditation Program list at www.supplychaincanada.org/en/accreditations) as a priority source for new hires, and remember to access our Career Focus wage subsidy program to access up to $12,750 to offset the cost of hiring.
We Need YOUR Help!The Council is interested in presenting the results of its current HR study upon its completion in early 2012. If your organization is having an event and would like to hear about the future direction of the sector and the impacts of change on our labour market and human resources issues, call the Council office or e-mail [email protected] to include you in our presentation schedules.
