Notes de l'éditeur
- I would like to welcome you, to today’s session , “Surviving the Workforce Crisis”. The fact that you took time out of your busy schedule, confirms you concerned about the Workforce Crisis. Today we are prepared to shared with you, information that is critical to your company’s ability to survive and thrive in the challenging times that lie ahead.
- In 2000, we see a “Fairly Young World”. At that time 12.5% of the U.S. working population was age sixty or higher. Twenty Percent of the European Workforce was over 60 years old. Many of the worlds emerging economies has a group of workers that are extremely young.
- Now lets fast forward to 2025. Our world is turning blue with an aging population. The US and Canada will need to find creative ways to tap the talents of the over 60 age worker to sustain the growth they have been experiencing.
- So why is it that we have such a high percentage of older workers? The answer is simple, with the improvements in health care and various medical breakthroughs we see the life expectancy of US workers increasing. At the beginning of the twentieth century our life expectancy was 47.5 years. Now we are living, on average, to 75 years or even greater.
- Here we can see the impact caused by that 3.3 children per family unit. A significant spike takes place between 1946 and 1965. How many of you in this room was born during this period? Raise your hand? What I previously called a significant spike was a wave that washed over every aspect of our economy. More food was needed, with economic success came the need for bigger homes, with bigger homes came the need for more schools and teachers, and this wave just shifted year after year. So now we see that wave about to crest as these workers prepare for whatever comes next! Can’t bring these people back with the same deal. At 55 in Texas a person can retire and begin to draw their retirement. In addition they can be rehired in that same position after 30 days, usually with lower pay
- Over the next thirty years labor demands may outstrip the supply by 35 million workers. You’re going to find that most of the unfilled jobs are likely to be in the highly demanded and highly paid managerial and professional occupations. Employers will need to know who their super performers are because if your don’t your competitors will . Our clients have told us that they are experiencing increased levels of poaching of top performing employees at all levels of the organization. Every unfilled job could directly cost our economy $100,000 per year in lost output – ultimately $3.5 trillion in annual output . Every business gets to pay for the loss. Note – Background Information: This projection reflects labor demand based on continuation 1980-2000 trend in output per capita adjusted for labor productivity improvement based on 1980-2000 trend applied to Census middle case estimates of total population in future years and continuation of 2000 labor force participation rates and 2000 level of immigration and guest worker entry. Closing the gap requires some combination of higher productivity growth, higher immigration or guest worker levels, and higher full-time equivalent labor force participation. Requirement includes irreducible minimum unemployment at 4%
- So what happened to that supply of workers that we have had for years? In 1960 the average US family had 3.3 kids per family unit. With the onslaught of the need for working Mom’s we now see the average family unit having two kids. This is a significant cut back for the US labor supply. You add that with the current education challenge in this country, not only do we not have enough supply, but those who are coming into the labor market lack the basic skills needed.
- Many developed nations from around the globe are wrestling with this issue. From the US to Italy to Australia and Japan, each country is facing an increasingly older population
- One of the most dramatic findings of the research conducted by The Concours Group and Age Wave was the impact employee engagement has on productivity and retention. Generation Y is a term that designates the group of people born immediately after " Generation X ." There is much dispute as to the exact range of birth years that constitutes "Generation Y" and whether this term is specific to North America , the Anglo world, or people worldwide. The only consensus, by way of its relation to the term "Generation X," is that those born in Generation Y must follow Generation X. Generation X is a term used to describe generations in many countries around the world. The exact demographic boundaries of Generation X are not well defined, depending on who is using the term, where and when. According to generation researchers Neil Howe and William Strauss , Generation X includes anyone born from 1961 to 1981 in North America A baby boomer is a person born between 1946 and 1964 in Australia, Canada or the United States. Following World War II , the United States experienced an unusual spike in birth rates , a phenomenon commonly known as the baby boom . Traditionalist include anyone born prior to the 1946 baby boom.
- What do younger workers look for in their employment relationships? Quite a lot. A cynic might say that young workers have not yet learned to lower their expectations. A progressive might counter that employers have net yet learned to meet their expectations, which eventually they must do. A realist might point out that there are simply many ways for employers to fail in the eyes of young workers, and failure spells turnover. This table lists young workers relative preferences among ten basic elements of the employment package. As with all workers, a comprehensive benefits package, with heavy emphasis on health-care coverage, tops the list. Young workers may be healthy, but they still value a benefits package, especially if they are starting families. Second, young workers value an enjoyable workplace more than mature workers do, and they even value it above “work that enables me to learn and grow.” They emphasize retirement packages least, perhaps because retirement seems far off, or perhaps because they doubt whether any retirement package will exist when they retire. Young workers place the highest relative weight on three items – flexible work schedule, additional compensation, and additional paid vacation.
- – use the ProfileXT to hire for fit.
- Not only did they find that those who were job-matched to their positions outperformed their non job-matched peers in their first six months in their jobs – but they also found that the performance gap had widened significantly after fourteen months.
- use Profile XT to place the right person in each job first time
- Those who are job-matched to their positions tend to stay in their jobs much longer – significantly reducing employee turnover and the many costs associated with turnover – advertising costs, agency costs, management time, down time, morale and so on. Look at the numbers – in the high turnover industries people stayed twice as long when they were matched to their jobs; while in low turnover industries they stayed as much as five times longer!
- Employees of all ages want meaningful work and responsibility, opportunities to learn, a congenial and respectful workplace, fair pay and adequate benefits, but to varying degrees. Mature workers expect the mix, especially such elements as pension accumulation and payout options, to reflect the value of their experience and their retirement preferences. This table shows what mature workers want among ten basic elements of the employment package. Not surprisingly, a comprehensive retirement package tops the list, followed by a comprehensive benefits package (with emphasis on health-care coverage). The next several elements entail the work experience. Mature workers value the conditions for personal contribution, enjoyment and growth more highly than work arrangements (flexible schedule and location) and more than significant increases in compensation and vacation. Note that more money and vacation matter least to mature workers partly because they are probably well paid already and have earned longer vacations.
- The downshifting trajectory completes a bell-shaped curve with a “deceleration” phase on the latter end that can be as carefully planned as one’s career “development” at the early end. In terms of economic productivity and individual well-being, “retiring” makes the least sense. We suspect that most employees will prefer – and employers must institutionalize – this downshifting model. Employers must accommodate these evolving needs of mature workers to maximize their productivity.
