L-Ewropa għandha tadatta għall-forza tax-xogħol tagħha li qed tixjieħ

Hekk kif ir-rati tat-twelid tal-kontinent jonqsu u l-popolazzjoni tiegħu tixjieħ, dawk li jfasslu l-politika jiffaċċjaw il-kompitu urġenti li jżommu ħaddiema b'esperjenza u jadattaw il-postijiet tax-xogħol biex jissodisfaw il-ħtiġijiet ta' demografika anzjana.

Episodju tal-podcast

Kif tista' l-Ewropa tadatta għal forza tax-xogħol li qed tixjieħ?

Kif tista' l-Ewropa tadatta għal forza tax-xogħol li qed tixjieħ? X'impedimenti jiffaċċjaw il-ħaddiema anzjani fuq il-post tax-xogħol? It-teknoloġiji li qed jinbidlu u l-kwalità tal-impjiegi kif qed jinfluwenzaw iż-żamma tal-ħaddiema akbar fl-età fis-suq tax-xogħol? Dan l-episodju għandu l-għan li jwieġeb dawn il-mistoqsijiet fil-kuntest tad-demografija li qed tinbidel fl-Ewropa u l-ħtieġa li x-xogħol isir aktar sostenibbli.

COVID-19: Could businesses have done better?

COVID-19 has shown that some things can hit us out of the blue. The pandemic sent a shockwave through businesses all over the world and has brought massive changes to work organisation, internal communication and day-to-day operations for many companies. Doubtless, the depth of the pandemic’s impact on workplaces depended on many factors: the nature of the business, for instance, or the sector of activity. But are there any lessons to be learnt about the factors that helped some organisations to navigate through the crisis more smoothly than others?

We need to boost motivation at work to ease Europe’s demographic headache

Motivated workers have higher levels of engagement, better health and are able to work longer. Improving motivation at work is therefore a key component in meeting the challenges of Europe’s ageing workforce and improving the EU’s long-term competitiveness on a global scale. This means that fostering motivation at work isn’t just about personal or business success, it is also about Europe’s success.

The human factor in innovation

Companies are constantly competing for the next big thing in innovation – the next-generation 3D phone, the quantum computer, the virtual doctor. They fixate on technological breakthroughs and look for new business models. But innovation also needs systems, an organisational structure and people who work together. The human factor in innovation is often forgotten or neglected – the employees’ skills, their level of input, their autonomy in their jobs and the rewards they receive. Or do such factors really play any role in innovation?
