With the Great Resignation of older workers leaving the workforce, the increased demand for remote work, and the implementation of new technologies including AI, the current and future state of the labor market has been radically reformed. Unemployment and labor participation in specialized skill sets is low, and voluntary quit rates are high. Many companies are finding it difficult to hire and retain skilled finance and accounting talent, and that’s leading to a lot of unplanned and very inconvenient gaps in organizational charts.
At the same time, there is uncertainty in the current climate and constant change in business. While job creation continues at a healthy pace, many organizations are seeking opportunities to manage or lower costs. As such, protecting their investment on people, process and technology initiatives is a priority but lack of efficiencies, process documentation and ongoing business process improvements can drive current staff away. Employees want to feel like they are working in a productive and efficient environment, and that their work is making a difference. When these things are lacking, employees can become frustrated and disengaged, which can lead them to look for other jobs. And if they leave, it can be costly for the company to replace them. Creating a workplace where employees feel valued and productive, will help to reduce turnover, and protect investment in employees.
This is creating a “perfect storm” of challenging dynamics motivating many companies to seek out alternative labor models and cost optimization initiatives to help them stay agile and competitive.
Tim Hird, Executive Vice President | Robert Half, has recently shared insights on these topics, faced by many finance leaders across the globe, including the current labor market, future of talent and labor models and ESG and talent planning.
