The Future of Work: Insights for 2025??

As we approach 2025, Australia’s job market is evolving rapidly, presenting both opportunities and challenges for job seekers and employers alike. From the rise of green energy jobs to the continued dominance of hybrid work models, these trends will shape the way we work and hire in the coming year. Here’s what you need to know:

Employment Trends: A Competitive Landscape ??

Australia’s unemployment rate is expected to rise slightly to 4.4%-4.5% by mid-2025, reflecting a tightening job market. While this remains historically low, it signals a challenge for employers.

• Rising job advertisements mean higher competition for skilled candidates.
• Smaller talent pools demand faster, more strategic hiring approaches.

TRESP can be an invaluable partner in navigating these shifts, helping you secure the best talent ahead of your competitors.

Skills You’ll Need for 2025 ??

To stay ahead, professionals must focus on these in-demand skills:

• Technical expertise: proficiency in software and systems specific to your field.

?? Workplace Trends to Watch: The hybrid work model is set to dominate, with candidates increasingly favouring flexible arrangements. Employers offering hybrid schedules or even 9-day fortnights will stand out in the competitive talent market.
