Inspiration

Instead of short-term-work, allowing individuals to act as a key-worker in the critical infrastructure industry.

What it does

Building a bridge between industries with workforce (key-workers) demand with key-workers that are in short-term-working programs or unemployed and provide them with jobs during the crisis.

Process

• Critical infrastructure suppliers identify fields in their companies where shortages of personnel could occur and a pool of key-workers should be built. They provide positions that are required in their companies and get asked for required skills.

• Interested persons register on the platform and choose work areas in which they are interested to broaden their skill set and apply for these fields.

• Companies provide a community for the interested workers and keep them up-to-date on the requirements.

• Interested workers use the learning resources and community to learn the required skills and therefore reduce the time that is needed for entering the position when they are required.

• If a company has a personnel shortage, they contact the workers that have used the learning resources and negotiate short term contracts with them in order to quickly bridge the gap in the personnel availability.
