The feedback on our recent Employment & Hiring Report has been amazing so far! We're eager to share our insights with even more of our network in our upcoming live webinar! Some of our findings really surprised us 👀 - only 13.3% of professionals we surveyed are not considering a job move. That means nearly 9 in 10 people are open to change. Workforce mobility will remain high in 2025, so what does this mean for businesses looking to retain their people?   The key is understanding what’s driving employment decisions and what employees truly want from work. In a shifting economy, salary is the #1 factor in evaluating a job offer. But a compelling EVP (Employer Value Proposition) matters just as much - employees are looking for more than just a paycheck.   Join us for an exclusive webinar where we unpack what this means for the job market. Whether you’re: ✅ Considering your own career move and want to understand what’s happening in the market ✅ A hiring manager or employer looking to stay ahead and attract the right people   This session is for you!   What to expect: 🎙Live insights from our marketing manager, Sarah Lunders who led the research for our report 🎙A discussion with two of our company directors, Amy Locke & Michelle Barrett, sharing first-hand market expertise 🎙Exclusive data + real experiences from our network   This will be a session you won’t want to miss! 📅 April 10th, 11am 🔗 Register now: https://lnkd.in/gzAw7yYD

Australian women earn nearly $30,000 less than men each year, according to the latest Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) report. For every $1 earned by a man, a woman earns 78 cents. Across 7,800 businesses, 72.2% of employers reported a gender pay gap in favour of men. There has been some progress however, with 56% of employers reducing their gender pay gap in 2023–24 compared to the previous year. These figures do not mean that women are paid less than men for the same job. Paying men and women equally for the same role or work of equal or comparable value is a legal requirement in Australia. Instead, gender pay gaps reflect underrepresentation of women in senior positions, fewer men working part-time or taking parental leave, and long-standing differences in how typically female and male dominated industries are valued and paid. So, where to from here? Transparency around pay gaps is a first step, but the real work lies in addressing structural barriers to progression. That means businesses investing in inclusive leadership, flexible working policies that support all caregivers, and equitable promotion pathways. Curious how different industries compare?
