Global Workforce of the Future 2022:

Unravelling the Talent Conundrum

The Global Workforce of the Future Report is our third annual global workforce study that looks at workers’ perspectives on key topics that impact the future of work.

The findings will deliver insights to companies and leaders on the shifts they need to make in order to future proof their business.

This year's report features the rise of #Quitfluencers, the geopolitical uncertainty and presents the 3 areas companies need to focus on as an antidote to the wage inflation crisis, namely workers' flexibility, career progression and mental health.

The results provide insights into the attitudes of the current workforce and offers food for thought to help organisations future-proof their talents.
