Global movements towards digitalisation and China’s ambitious goals to assume global leadership in a number of emerging technologies will shape the country’s job market in the coming year, says recruiting experts Hays, as part of the country’s top 10 talent trends for 2020.
Consistent government support and a booming tech ecosystem has led to China becoming a leader in digital technologies. As a result, China’s digital tech job market is expected to see sustained, albeit slightly slower growth in hiring owing to a slowing economy that will also contribute to a renewed focus on digitalisation for many companies.
Going green can benefit staff attraction and retention, but organisations must demonstrate real commitment. According to recruiting experts Hays, if genuine talent attraction and retention benefits are to be realised, employers need to ensure their sustainability efforts are authentic.
Organisations across Asia have been ramping up their efforts to mitigate bias in their recruitment selection process in the last year. However, the latest Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) report by leading recruitment experts Hays revealed that most employees across Asia still believe business leaders carry a bias towards hiring people who look, think or act like them.
The majority of employers across Asia capture the workforce diversity data of those they select and hire, and the majority of employees across Asia believe that the usage of workforce feedback for understanding demographic engagement is a positive thing. However, only half of them are confident that such data is being effectively used to inform their candidate attraction strategy, reveals the latest Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) report by leading recruitment experts Hays.
China is much more aware than other Asian countries and regions that Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) in the workplace helps boost innovation, a key driver for economic growth, as revealed in the latest findings of leading recruitment experts Hays.
Rising tariffs, political tensions and the resulting economic slowdown have put reactiveness, change management and strategic planning at the forefront of supply chain management functions in China, alongside an ongoing focus on digital transformation.
