    10. WELCOME TO THE CRITICAL SKILL SHORTAGES INITIATIVE WORKSHOP WORKSHOP II Analyzing Causes and Developing Solutions for Skill Shortages

    11. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 11 Review Of Workshop I What are major sectors? How do you determine key sectors? How do you analyze key sectors industries and types of employers? How do you identify critical skill shortages? Healthcare example

    12. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 12 Overview of Workshop II How do you determine root causes and identify solutions? Employer issues Education issues secondary and post-secondary

    13. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 13 How Do We Determine Root Causes Of The Shortages? First, examine how individuals become qualified for the shortage occupation (i.e., formal occupational education & training, apprenticeships, or on-the-job). Second, examine the capacity of the training system to produce qualified applicants (i.e., total capacity, dropouts, and completion rates). Third examine the methods used by employers to recruit qualified applicants (i.e., successful program completers, word-of-mouth, placement agencies, ISM, etc.).

    14. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 14 How Do We Determine Root Causes Of The Shortages? Fourth, examine the adequacy of K-12 activities designed to make students and potential applicants aware of opportunities and prepared to (i.e., prerequisite skills) enter the occupation or related vocational training. And, fifth examine the degree to which excessive job turnover may be contributing to the shortage.

    15. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 15 First Stop The Leaks! Dont just focus on increasing capacity (i.e., the number and/or size) of vocational training programs, without first stopping all the leaks. Capacity Utilization - Are vocational programs operating at full capacity? Successful Completion - Are too many students dropping out or failing? Job Placement - Are successful completers getting training-related jobs locally? Retention - Are qualified individuals leaving the occupation too soon?

    16. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 16 First Stop The Leaks! Quantify how dealing with these issues could reduce the shortage. Focus only on issues that can be shown will reduce the shortage. Stopping the leaks and using existing capacity is the most cost effective means of dealing with the shortage. Only then look at options to increase training capacity.

    17. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 17 How Do We Determine What Factors Contribute To High Turnover? Talk directly with HR personnel from employers in the region. Talk to representatives from industry associations. Talk to labor representatives. Review existing industry sponsored research. Survey incumbent workers and / or recent job leavers. Look at the relative success of training completers by program. * Only focus on retention issues if it can be shown that turnover is significant and/or above industry norms.

    18. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 18 The retention rate for workers in Hospitals and Medical Offices exceeds other industries.

    19. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 19 Example Of Report Focusing On Retention By Training Provider

    20. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 20 What are typical causes of high turnover? Applicants inadequately prepared Lack prerequisite skills Lack technical skills Lack a realistic knowledge of the conditions of employment Failure to accommodate needs of non-traditional workers Single parents Handicapped/ disabled Language

    21. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 21 What are typical causes of high turnover? Stress on the job: Shift rotation Mandatory overtime Physical demands Safety issues Psychological demands Aging workforce / retirement

    22. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 22 Factors cited as contributing to high turnover of RNs Poor pay and benefits Poor relationships with physicians Lack of voice in patient care issues Mandatory overtime and lack of scheduling flexibility Patient load and pace of work due to understaffing Lack of access to supervisors and mentors Documentation requirements

    23. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 23 Reasons cited by nurses for remaining with the same employer for 5 or more years

    24. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 24 Solutions suggested to reduce turnover of nursing staff in hospitals Redesign work processes using collaborative work models, designed to meet patient, worker, and organizational needs, while ensuring that the work of caregivers and support staff is meaningful. Revise reward systems to encourage collaborative and multidisciplinary approaches to accomplish work. Adopt new communication and information technology solutions to reduce duplicate data entry, improve communication, and improve workflow. Modify work environments to accommodate older workers (e.g., the mean age of the nurse population in 2000 was 47; it was 25 in 1980).

    25. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 25 Solutions suggested to reduce turnover of nursing staff in hospitals Improve scheduling and reduce mandatory overtime by anticipating peak demand better, spreading out admissions, and cross training staff to develop a float pool of talent. Analyze where (in what units) turnover is greatest and look more closely for issues in those units. Analyze where (in what units) turnover is greatest and look more closely for issues in those units. Overall do a better job of listening to the workers and upgrading front-line management skills,

    36. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 36 Recommendations from the Focus Report on Nursing Programs in Illinois Community Colleges Continue efforts to improve student retention. Carefully monitor the local job market for Nursing graduates and adjust enrollment caps to meet demand. Maintain close contacts with employers in the various healthcare settings (hospitals, nursing homes, home health care agencies, physicians offices, clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, emergency medical centers, etc.) to more fully meet employer needs.

    37. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 37 Selected Issues Impacting Registered Nursing Faculty availability Clinical site availability. Regulated parameters for training/education. Expanded options for traditional worker populations. Pay versus responsibility versus other employment options. Working conditions (scheduling, hours, stress, workload, physical requirements of the work, etc.). Role in the overall healthcare profession.

    38. Governors Workforce Development Conference October 24, 2003 Critical Skill Shortages Initiative 38 Potential Approaches to Address Issues Impacting Registered Nursing Compensation and recognition for faculty. Creative and expanded partnerships with the healthcare provider community. Collaboration with regulators. Nontraditional student recruitment.
