Employers of all sizes are facing unprecedented human resource challenges. There is a lot of uncertainty in terms of what measures to implement and how to best address the situation.

On April 16, AmCham members were the first to find out the results of a survey recently conducted by ERDA on HR challenges and opportunities brought by the Covid-19 crisis. During our second webinar in Connect with AmCham series ERDA presented main findings including risks and opportunities of the survey based on information provided by more than 100 companies in the Baltics on topical activities and new solutions for problems employers are facing in times of Covid-19 crisis. Among opprotunities were listed strategic workforce planning, revising existing tools and importance of trainings and communication.
