EVOLVING BUSINESS BY PUTTING PEOPLE FIRST
Investing in a business model that puts your employees first means that you are more likely to retain talent . This involves building a culture and workplace that attracts and retains the workforce , including corporate social responsibility initiatives ( CSR ) − which includes diversity , equity and inclusion ( DEI ) − volunteering and sustainability work , as well as other investment in employees . Eric Olmo , Senior Vice President for People and Spaces at BMC , explains what companies can do to keep talent .
Among the many global challenges brought on by the pandemic , one that has triggered a lasting shift for employers is the mass exodus of the workforce from many companies , dubbed among other names , the Great Reshuffle .
This Great Reshuffle has resulted in a record number of workers making choices about their futures and seeking opportunities that better match what they want from their lives . In fact , according to research from Statista , Q2 2022 saw the highest number of UK resignations taking place in a single quarter since 2001 .
This , in combination with the current economic climate , means employers must evolve how they attract and retain talent .
