Changing Global Demographics: Your Duty of Care for Every Generation

Workplace Application: You will learn about the various risks associated with the diversity of generations represented in your organization, and how to effectively care for these travelers from a Duty of Care perspective.

 

The changing demographics of today’s workforce create new challenges for employers. From Baby Boomers to Millennials, you are faced with increased pressure to manage the vigorous demands and risks of employees sent out on international assignments. More experience may mean greater health related issues, while less experienced employees may find themselves in naively dangerous situations. Learn how to identify, mitigate, and prevent these risks from creating a bigger financial, reputational, and legal risk for your company.
