This article is about the pace of change in the job market. There is always more to learn, new regulations to follow, and technology to put to use. Modern workers need to be very resilient and flexible to handle all the problems that come their way. This is more reasons on why organizations should maintain the reskilling and upskilling. These days, the labor market is changing rapidly and it is difficult for organizations to predict the future of the labor market. While there are many benefits to this ever-changing landscape, there are also some challenges to overcome. Innovations in technology carry significant weight, and as new technologies emerge, workers are compelled to acquire new skill sets. In order to maintain the reskilling and upskilling to be there physically, but nowadays employees are working from home or known as remote working and the physical working environment has been drastically altered. Without employees physically there in the company, employers find it hard to keep doing the reskilling and upskilling since the hassle they have to go through to make sure that every worker comes to the company. 


The impact of this issue to employees is employees' lack of skill. The employees did not have the opportunity to grow their skills and to upgrade their role in the company. The employees will stay in their positions but not for a long term since the rapid growth in the labor market will be needing more skill than the current employees. The impact to performance is outdated skill sets. Workers may end up with out-of-date abilities if reskilling initiatives are not sustained. As a result, workers may be unprepared to adapt to new responsibilities and trends in the workplace. Next, the impact to organization is impaired innovation and organizations adaptability. Innovation and adaptation to changes in the business environment can be challenging for a staff with out-of-date skills. As a result, the company may find it more difficult to adapt to changing market conditions and accept new technology.


The solutions for the issue are individual development plans. Involve workers in the process of developing individualized plans that detail their professional objectives and the steps they will take to reach those objectives. Please be sure to evaluate and update these plans on a regular basis so they continue to be relevant for both the individual and the organization. Next, cross training initiative. Initiate programmes of cross-training so that workers can learn about other parts of the company. Because of this, not only do they increase the breadth of their skill set, but they also increase the flexibility of the organization by having personnel who are capable of performing different positions. The last solution is partnership with educational institutions. Facilitate access to specialized training programmes and courses for employees by establishing relationships with educational institutions. Working together with outside specialists to conduct training sessions or workshops is a promising strategy.


As a conclusion, reskilling and upskilling is one of the important mediums in an organization and by doing these regularly it will help to embrace the skills employees need in an organization. Other than that, organizations can gain more strength in terms of employers skills and manage to overcome the struggle faced by other companies in the market. By having upskilling and reskilling employees, employers get to know what types of skills are suitable for the current trend and what skills should be paid attention to. So the companies get to compete with others.
