Fill the skills gap in your company.

Post date: Mar 5, 2016 8:55:07 AM

As the economic downturn forces many companies to let go of highly experienced and skilled members of staff, those left on the payroll are under increasing pressure to fill the void left by their former colleagues. With many businesses also reducing or completely cutting their training budgets those employees taking on expanded job roles often do so with inadequate training.

This leaves a skills gap in many UK companies that could not only be detrimental to business prospects long term, but also leave staff ill-equipped and stressed in the short term. So how can business and HR mangers minimise the effects of this skills deficit? At what point should you invest in more training? And how can you marshal your precious budgets to your advantage?
