Barriers to hiring disadvantaged or vulnerable workers: Victorian employers' attitudes survey
This collaborative study explored the extent to which recruitment of low-skilled workers was a problem for employers, as well as employee work readiness, foundational skills and vocational training, and the support mechanisms to increase worker retention.
The research project surveyed a sample of Victorian businesses on their views of the barriers to hiring disadvantaged or vulnerable job seekers in entry level positions.
It also aimed to identify the types of assistance or support that potential employers need to enable them to take on and retain this group of job seekers.
