Hiring youth makes good business sense. Young workers are often
- energetic, flexible and open-minded
- more likely to offer a fresh outlook and to consider different ways to do things
- comfortable and skilled with technology
- active on social media, connecting with people who may need the services of their employers
- accustomed to multi-tasking
- newly trained and tuned into the latest market research, perspectives and approaches
- at home with the cultural diversity found in today’s workplaces
- innovative, bright thinkers who approach work with an entrepreneurial spirit that can help your business expand
In an active labour market, when vacancies can be hard to fill, young hires offer your business
- a steady stream of new candidates to consider
- an adaptable workforce that’s open to change
- reduced wage and salary costs due to their lower level of experience
