Youth@Risk is a project run by the Adecco Group’s Innovation Foundation. Its goal is to help young people at risk of permanently falling off the employment circuit onto the track of education, training and meaningful work - and it begins in Mexico City.

In this episode of Future of Work Conversations, we explore human resources’ evolving role in the humanitarian sector.

Women in the workforce have been most impacted by the pandemic, resulting in millions of workers, globally, leaving jobs due to care-giving responsibilities. Many workers are now coming back to work, but the problem remains – how can employers provide more flexibility and stability to women at work? Employers are implementing and scaling effective solutions; however, the focus has been primarily on office workers. Not enough is being done to address the more specific needs of workers in low- to mid-skilled jobs: front-line and service workers, who are often women carrying the burden of care-giving responsibilities. The Innovation Foundation is at the forefront of innovating new solutions for women re-entering the workforce after the pandemic.
