Desperate labour shortage and record low unemployment rate. How will the border opening impact your business? New Zealand’s Borders are finally open and the war for talent grows as a brain drain of skilled young workers are booking flights and quitting their jobs to move overseas.
New Zealand’s Borders are finally open and the war for talent grows as a brain drain of skilled young workers are booking flights and quitting their jobs to move overseas. The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) recently reported that 125,000 New Zealanders could leave the country within 12 months.
Experts say the departure may be higher as youth have missed the opportunity to leave on overseas experiences since the covid-19 period. But a warning was declared to New Zealanders to expect skill shortages to increase.
A study conducted by Business New Zealand indicated a large percentage of the country, including the entire South Island, only has one able worker for every two jobs advertised. Meaning New Zealand will have to catch up in the war for talent.
There is nothing keeping individuals in New Zealand. The financial pressure is rising due to the rising cost of living and the wage gap.
Research from the Financial Services Council revealed that 18 to 39-year-olds had been struck by global inflation and rising interest rates. Jarrod Haar stated that of the 18 to 39 age group, 56 per cent were considering leaving the country.
Australia being just around the corner is one of New Zealand’s biggest competitors due to the lower cost of living. Higher wages appear to be an attractive option for youth. Gen Z is the future of New Zealand and yet they are feeling the effects of the current economic climate more than any other age group. Research is raising concerns the age group may become a “Lost Generation”, which will critically affect the future of New Zealand’s economy.
