  3. With or without Brexit, we have a skills issue but Brexit could magnify it

  4. WORLDWIDE SKILLS SHORTAGE | A Korn Ferry study found that by 2030, there will be a global human talent shortage of more than 85 million people – roughly equivalent to the population of Germany. | Left unchecked, in 2030 that talent shortage could result in about $8.5 trillion in unrealised annual revenues. | A recurring theme appears to be that the nations which look set to be worst hit by this are either typically or increasingly hostile to the movement of international labour, while also hosting an ageing population.  1NuffieldTrust.(2017).GeneralElection2017:GettingaBrexitdealthatworksfortheNHS.

SOCIAL CARE UK currently has full access to a labourmarketcomprisingof310mEuropeancitizensofworkingage whofrequentlyfill vacancies atalowerlevelin several industrieswillnecessitatetheupskillingofUKcitizens with some estimating, due to Brexit and an ageing population, a shortage of skilled labour for 3m jobs by 2030.The current position in keysectors: | 90,000 (7%) oflocal authority and independent sector jobs were held by EU Nationals (13% in London) | High turnover rate, currently at 27.8%. | TheNuffieldTrust1estimatesashortfallof70,000socialcareworkersby2025-26-afigurethatshouldalarm GovernmentgiventheincreasingnumbersoftheUK’spopulationthatrequiresomedegreeofcare. | Tofillthisshortfall,qualificationsatL2-theminimumrequiredtoworkinthecaresectorwillbeimportantinthis process. 1NuffieldTrust.(2017).GeneralElection2017:GettingaBrexitdealthatworksfortheNHS.

  6. HEALTH CARE • | Health Education England states the NHS is currently short of 42,000 staff, including 20,000 positions for mental health staff and 1,000 frontline staff in ambulance services • | NHS jobs had the most job listings in the past 6 months (69,561) which was just under double the listings of the second highest organisation • | Manchester and Birmingham have the most NHS job listings in England outside of London • | Job postings for “Staff Nurse” are the most popular (3240) vs the 2nd most listed, Occupational Therapist (1317 listings) • | 10,866 of the job postings asked for Management skills (15.6%) • | Mental health and Leadership skills were the most sort after “common skills” to have for job listings. • | Ageing population will put more strain on the health care sector as UK nurses have an average age of 42 and 29% of nurses are aged over 50 • | HEE warns that the health service workforce will need to increase by 190,000 workers by 2027

  7. DIGITAL AND IT If G20 countries fail to adapt to meet the needs of the new technological era, they could be in line to miss out on as much as $1.5 trillion in GDP growth over the next 10 years. A growing skills shortage means that much of the potential of digitalisation could go unrealised, with the UK facing forgoing more than £140 billion to that end. Digital technologies, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and automation are often spoken of as a potential remedy for skills shortages, with the increased efficiency and accuracy of technological solutions compensating for the loss of a portion of the physical workforce. At the same time, however, many Human Resources (HR) departments still underestimate just what is required of them to make the most of technological progress, by way of re-training and up-skilling their incumbent workforce, as well as adapting their hiring processes to foster new, digitally savvy, talent. 1NuffieldTrust.(2017).GeneralElection2017:GettingaBrexitdealthatworksfortheNHS.
