Union: Women workers key to skilled worker shortages National Business Review, New Zealand
Women could be the key to the skilled worker shortages identified in a recent Auckland Chamber business survey, according to Council of Trade Unions secretary Carol Beaumont.
Ms Beaumont said the answer is not the 'current trend' toward easing rules to allow temporary migrant labour into the country, but changing the work environment to enable easier entry and training for women.
She said women are underrepresented in the current workforce because of obstacles to participation, not disinclination to work.------------------------------------------- posted 8:27 AM :: reference link ::
