WHY WORKFORCE
WELLBEING

Workforces are key to economic growth; however, as the world progresses post the COVID-19 pandemic, we have transitioned from a Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous (VUCA) world to a Brittle, Anxious, Non-Linear, and Incomprehensible world. Global economics is also moving towards circularity; however, with that comes a growing range of inequalities encompassing global wealth, income, gender, and ecological inequality across the world. In most cases, labour markets and systems may be incapacitated to adjust to the changes, which leaves the workforce continuing to experience vulnerability. With the belief that a safe and enabling work environment is non-negotiable for the workforce to thrive, Upfront strives to make systems, capacities, and markets stronger and more inclusive to ensure both workforce and business wellbeing, but not at the cost of each other.
