🌟 Calling all HR professionals: Let's make a difference for orphanage children transitioning into adulthood! 🌟 As HR professionals, we have the power to enact positive change in our communities. Today, I want to shine a light on a critical issue that often goes unnoticed: the plight of orphanage children who age out of the system without adequate support. Imagine being forced to leave the only home you've ever known at the age of 18, without a support system or the resources to build a stable future. For many orphanage children, this is their reality, and it's a nightmare scenario we cannot ignore. But here's where we can make a difference. As HR professionals, we have the expertise and resources to provide these young adults with opportunities for employment and a chance to thrive independently. I'm calling all my fellow HR professionals to join me in brainstorming solutions and taking action. Whether it's through internship programs, job placements, or mentorship initiatives, there are countless ways we can support these vulnerable individuals as they navigate the transition into adulthood. Together, let's make a commitment to create a more inclusive and supportive society for all. If you're passionate about this cause and want to collaborate on solutions, I'd love to connect and discuss further. #HRforOrphanageChildren #SupportTransition #MakeADifference

Building Stronger Youth Employment Systems: Key Strategies for Success At TYP Collaborative, we believe in the power of effective youth employment systems to transform lives. Here are three critical strategies to ensure a comprehensive approach: 1. Effective Administrative Agents: Leadership and accountability are essential. Administrative agents must manage diverse functions, from entry points to tracking progress, ensuring youth receive the support they need every step of the way. 2. Workforce Preparation & Employer Engagement: Real-world experiences are vital. Collaborating with employers to provide internships, job shadowing, and hands-on learning opportunities bridges the gap between education and employment, preparing youth for successful careers. 3. Cross-System Collaboration: Working together is key. By leveraging resources and expertise across education, workforce, child welfare, and juvenile justice sectors, we can create a holistic support system that addresses all aspects of youth development. Let's continue to advocate for policies that support these strategies, ensuring every young person has the opportunity to thrive in the workforce. #YouthEmployment #WorkforceDevelopment #Collaboration #PolicyChange #TypCollab

It's disheartening to observe instances where projects in Nepal, ostensibly established to promote equal opportunities for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), appear to engage in deceptive practices. Despite significant funding from various international sources and the involvement of so-called Human Resources (HR) professionals, there are concerns regarding the authenticity of their efforts. One glaring issue is the promotion of internships for PWDs with durations ranging from three to six months in various corporate houses. These opportunities are often advertised as pathways to full-time employment, creating a false sense of security for the interns. Unfortunately, the reality unfolds quite differently, as many interns find themselves terminated on the grounds of not meeting corporate productivity standards. The question arises: how can these projects and HR professionals, who portray themselves as champions of inclusivity, justify such actions? This apparent discrepancy between their advertised inclusive practices and the actual treatment of PWD interns raises serious ethical concerns. Moreover, the receipt of substantial international funds and benefits adds another layer of responsibility and accountability. It becomes imperative for these projects to align their actions with the principles they claim to uphold. If such discrepancies persist, they not only betray the trust of the international community but also undermine the very essence of inclusivity and equal opportunities for PWDs. Addressing these issues requires transparency, accountability, and a genuine commitment to the cause. It is essential for the stakeholders involved, including HR professionals and the projects in question, to reevaluate their practices and ensure that their actions align with the values they profess. Only through sincere efforts to foster true inclusivity and equal opportunities can these projects honor the trust placed in them by both the international community and the individuals they aim to support.

Local Students Need Local Business. Our research shows that 1/3 of 17-20 year olds leave Bedford, which results in a smaller future workforce for local companies. Our research also shows that young people are desperately wanting to engage with local businesses for work experience. Why? so they can begin to engage with future employers and learn skills that will help them find jobs after education. We are currently trying to help students find work experience placements for the following weeks Years 10 - May 13th - 17th & July 8th - 12th Years 12 July 1st - 5th. Can your company help raise up future employees who want to stay local? https://lnkd.in/ew2Qc-xz

The Careers People update 5: Growth! 🪴 My final update of things that have been taking shape during my maternity leave is the development of our team, which will lead to the reintroduction of our employer offer. We have over 100 schools clients and 7 education company clients but aren't currently working with any employers. Our offer for employers was growing but I couldn't focus on everything at once so it took a seat on the bench! This month, I have an exciting call to begin taking on an apprentice (yay!) and a meeting with an early careers specialist about joining the team. If you're an employer looking for support to better engage school and college leavers, watch this space 👀 #careers #earlycareers #talentattraction

4moThe biggest nightmare for Indian Orphanage children celebrating 18th Birthday. The law in India says that children have to look on their own once they reach the age of 18 Years. So they have to leave the orphanage on their 18th Birthday. What happens after that?? Best thing that can happen with children is they get a Guardian. Who will take care of the expenses for their further education, healthcare and basic survival. But this does not happen with everyone. Option for Boys: 1. Look for job- labor work or anything possible 2. Boys might get into dirty unethical businesses Worst is case with girls. 70-80% girls gets married with someone with age more than 40 years for mutual benefits. 10% girls get a chance to study further with some scholarship or sponsorship. 3–4% girls get towards prostitute business which is worst case of all. Imagine the situation of girls on road in search for survival with no identity, no contacts, no future and no support from anyone. Orphanages in India might be doing great cause to support children but Govt has to make some arrangements for children after they complete 18 years of age till they start earning.
