In this presentation we will explore the topic of Building an inclusive workforce for all ages. We currently have 5 generations in the workplace and each of these generations bring a wealth of unique skills, knowledge, outlooks, experience and expectations. This creates diverse workplaces which can also bring its challenges for employers.
How do organisations attract, retain, motivate and engage each of these generations? We will look at some examples of case law where employers haven’t quite got things right.
You can attend via Zoom or in person Engineering A_3A.071.
Lunch is available.
