DeleteSkilled migration, it is a huge crisis for the organization and the country as whole. Rightly touched on the current crisis. Can learn well from the article
ReplyDeleteAs migration cannot be stopped One potential solution is Government can provide subsidies for companies to move to rural areas by moving to rural areas we can source talent there than cities as Sri lanka has high literacy rate and with time people will be trained to take up higher positions in head office located in cities, thereby Company can have a contingency plan with high talent pool which were groomed by time, so even if there is migration , if one goes we have five potential people to take over, also moving out of cities cuts down employee personal expense so people with prefer to stay with a company longer even for a reasonable salary, which will not allow him to think of migration ideas
ReplyDeleteAgreed & thanks
DeleteThis is a really important topic, and considering all of the facts and data, it will be eye-opening for all of us. As a result, the true phenomenon of skill movement that you cite has been adequately articulated. As a rural area, the moving skills will be very sad, and considering the above, it will urge us to avoid migrating. Good job 🙏🙏
ReplyDeleteThanks 😊
DeleteThe topic you have selected is a major problem we have facing these days. Insufficient salary according to the cost of living of the country, less consideration of the employee, neglecting employee's ideas might be the reasons to employee turnover and migration of the professional skilled workers. For that management of the organization as well as the government of the country should make the decision to protect existing employee of the organization and attract outsource person to the company.
ReplyDeleteYour article is well planned one and it explains properly the importance of the HR management and how should avoid migration of skilled workers and why?
Good Luck....!
Thanks
