Funded by the Queensland Government’s Growing Workforce Participation Fund, QCOSS’ Supporting diverse workforces project is a sector strengthening program of work, supporting community services organisations in Queensland to develop their human resources capability.
Workplace diversity is crucial – especially in the social services sector – and yet many organisations struggle to attract and retain diverse candidates.
With sector workforce shortages at crisis point, it’s a critical time to re-evaluate and reform your human resources strategy to make sure it promotes genuinely diverse and inclusive hiring and workplaces.
This program will give you the tools you need to build a stable and diverse employee base and communicate your organisation’s value to talented jobseekers.
