- Organizations across all industries project that future jobs will require more skills, education and credentials compared to current roles.
- Manufacturing saw the largest differences between current and future requirements for skilled labor and administrative/secretarial jobs.
- Many industries forecast an increase in the percentage of administrative/secretarial jobs requiring an associate's degree.

India has manpower of 1.2 billion and it is ironic that still we suffer from dearth of talent? Only 10% of MBA graduates of the country are employable
17& of Engineering graduates are employable. The enormity of the challenge that India will face in year 2026 can be imagined when 64.8% of India’s population would be in the working age of 15-64 years.
Impact of rising demographics on employment
By 2020 out of 1.3 billion people in India we will have about 0.8 billion in the working age and that is surely something the world can look forward to.
Quality of workforce is more important than quantity. In fact having a lower head count of skilled manpower is much better than a manpower whose larger portion is unemployable.
India will heading for a skill gap of 75-80% across Industry sectors. There will be people but with skills that corporate do not require, and jobs for which the right fit is not available. The economic impact of this vicious cycle is something like powerhouse of educated yet frustrated youth who are directionless with no jobs in hand is unimaginable.

Qualification requirements for employment in the Smart Grid sector are rigorous, with many employers seeking candidates with advanced degrees, a host of ancillary certifications and highly specialized work experience. Those meeting these stringent standards are becoming a coveted group of highly sought after hires, and the cost of recruiting them is on the rise, as evidenced by increasing salaries and a more widespread use of hiring bonuses. Understanding the inherent challenges in recruiting and retaining this elusive group, some employers are beginning to tap into the new graduate pool of Smart Grid hopefuls. However, this strategy is not without its roadblocks, as comprehensive, Smart Grid curricula that incorporates the hands-on experience needed to fully develop a candidate’s skills is far from prolific

SHRM’s 2014 Strategic Benefits Survey collected data on how organizations communicate their benefits programs to their employees.
This research found that less than one-tenth (9%) of HR professionals thought their organization’s employees were “very knowledgeable” about the employer-sponsored benefits available to them; about three-quarters (73%) indicated their employees were “somewhat knowledgeable.” When asked how effective their organization’s employee benefits communications efforts are, just over one-fifth (22%) indicated they “strongly agree” that their organization’s benefits communication was very effective in informing employees about their benefits; the majority (58%) indicated they “somewhat agree.” However, more than three-fifths (63%) of respondents indicated their organization had made changes to their organization’s benefits communication materials in the last 12 months.
This study looks at the impact of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on organizations. Three-quarters of organizations (77%) had increased costs for health care benefits from 2014 to 2015.
Strategic Benefits--Leveraging Benefits to Retain Employeesshrm
SHRM’s 2014 Strategic Benefits Survey collected data on how organizations leverage benefits to retain employees, including employees at all levels of the organization, highly skilled employees and high-performing employees.
This research found that about one-quarter (24%-26%) of respondents indicated their organization leveraged their benefits program to retain employees at all levels of the organization, highly skilled employees and high-performing employees in the past 12 months.
Health care was the benefit most frequently cited as being leveraged to retain employees at all levels of the organization (74%), high-performing employees (60%) and highly skilled employees (70%). Retirement savings and planning were also frequently cited as being leveraged to retain employees at all levels of the organization (62%) and high-performing employees (54%), whereas more respondents indicated their organization leveraged leave benefits and flexible working benefits (both 53%) to retain highly skilled employees.
SHRM Survey Findings: 2013 Employer Perspectives on Disability Benefits--Base...shrm
This is part one of the five-part series conducted in collaboration with MassMutual. The majority (84%) of organizations provide group long-term disability insurance plans to their employees, but will the maximum benefit amount be enough for all employees to support themselves and their families?
A majority of employers (94-97%) plan to observe New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas in 2015. Because Independence Day falls on a Saturday, 60% of organizations will be closed on Friday, July 3, the day before Independence Day. Few organizations plan to close their doors on religious holidays other than Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
SHRM Survey Findings: 2013 Employer Perspectives on Disability Benefits--Exec...shrm
This is the last part of the five-part series conducted in collaboration with MassMutual. Nearly one-third (31%) of organizations offer a special class of benefits to their executives. Among those organizations, 31% provide executives Group Universal Life (GUL) or Group Variable Universal Life (GVUL) as a carve-out benefit from their group term plan.
Background Checking—The Use of Credit Background Checks in Hiring Decisionsshrm
A recent survey indicated that slightly more than one-half (53%) of organizations do not conduct credit background checks on any of their job candidates, an increase from 40% in 2010. The leading reasons organizations conduct credit checks on job candidates are to decrease/prevent theft and embezzlement (45%) and to reduce legal liability for negligent hiring (22%). Of the organizations that conduct credit background checks, 80% reported that they have hired a job candidate whose credit report contained information that reflected negatively on his or her financial situation. The three most important factors that influence the final decision to hire a particular candidate over another are previous work experience, a good fit with the job and the organization, and specific expertise needed for the job.
This research sought to determine what types of policies organizations are implementing in regard to political activities in the workplace, particularly as they relate to the 2016 presidential election. The survey also looked at whether organizations encouraged their employees to vote in political elections and whether employees were given time off to vote.
Shrm survey findings using competencies to achieve business unit success finalshrm
SHRM surveyed executives of business units other than HR (e.g., CEO, CFO, Vice President) to learn more about their views of what it takes for leaders to be successful across HR departments and different functional areas such as finance and accounting, sales and marketing, and IT. Specifically, this report focuses on the competencies needed now and in the future, including Business Acumen, Communication, Consultation, Critical Evaluation, Ethical Practice, Global and Cultural Effectiveness, Human Resource Expertise, Leadership and Navigation, and Relationship Management.

This research, conducted in collaboration with Ascendo Resources, looks at the importance of having a social media presence for job seekers, as well as social media strategies HR professionals use for recruitment. Overall, 87% of HR professionals said it was either very or somewhat important for job seekers to have a social media presence on LinkedIn, and 83% agreed it was important to be on a relevant professional or association social networking site. In the past year, nearly two-thirds of organizations (65%) had hired new employees who were sourced through social media sites.
SHRM'S 2010 Healthy Food and Drinks in the Workplace poll surveyed HR professionals about healthy offerings in their organizations. Forty percent of organizations have formal or informal practices and/or policies in place that promote healthy food and drinks in the workplace. Nearly all employees have responded favorably to these organizations’ efforts to promote healthy food and drinks for work-related functions where food is served, in on-site vending machines, in the company cafeteria, etc.
The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM®), the world’s largest association devoted to human resource management, has collaborated with Globoforce® on a series of surveys about employee recognition. Our goal is to elicit trends among HR leaders and practitioners about what challenges they face and what strategies help them conquer those challenges. In the 2015 survey, 80% of organizations indicated they have an employee recognition program, and more than one-half (58%) have a program that is tied to their organization’s values. Overall, respondents said employee recognition programs had a positive impact on employee engagement, happiness and workplace relationships, but the impact was perceived to be greater for those with values-based programs.
This research collected comprehensive information on the prevalence of organizations hiring 2015 college graduates with undergraduate and graduate degrees.

Among organizations that indicated they had hired 2015 graduates, 18% offered higher total compensation to 2015 college graduates than to 2014 college graduates; the majority (81%) offered compensation that was “about the same.”
Preparing for an Aging Workforce: A Gap Analysisshrm
The report and accompanying slide presentation are based on a comparison between two main sources of information on the aging workforce: a) the SHRM Foundation’s Effective Practice Guidelines (EPG) on the Aging Workforce and b) findings from the SHRM Aging Workforce Survey. The purpose of this comparison is to find gaps between the effective, evidence-based practices in employing, recruiting and retaining an aging workforce identified in the EPGs and the current practices related to the aging workforce used by organizations as reported through the survey findings.

SHRM’s 2014 Strategic Benefits Survey collected comprehensive information on wellness initiatives, including use, return on investment and cost savings, as well as the use of incentives and rewards.
This research found that about three-quarters (76%) of respondents indicated their organization offered some type of a wellness program, resource or service to employees. Among these respondents, about one-half reported that employee participation increased last year compared with the year before; the same was true in 2013 and 2012 (56% and 54%, respectively), indicating a pattern of increased use of wellness initiatives over time. More than two-thirds of respondents from organizations that offered wellness initiatives indicated these initiatives were “somewhat effective” or “very effective” in reducing the costs of health care in 2014 (72%), 2013 (71%) and 2012 (68%).
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
