2021 APAC Workforce Insights

This week we release our eagerly anticipated 2021 APAC Workforce Insights Report. It’s the result of a survey of 1,500 employers and hiring decision-makers from a cross-section of industries in 12 markets – Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam.

The report highlights critical issues in HR and workforce management triggered or exacerbated by the pandemic.

Highlights of the report include:

Up to 85% of the respondents face challenges building their workforce.

The top challenges for companies building a workforce are constraints on global mobility due to the pandemic, a lack of talents available locally, and a high drop-out rate in certain segments.

55% of the companies are willing to consider engaging overseas talent remotely.

The main roadblocks reported are uncertainty about how to track and monitor the performance of employees, language and culture, and working across time zones.

PERSOLKELLY’s Regional Talent Solutions is well positioned to support companies and help drive their workforce growth strategies across APAC.
