Em Employme ment nt Lan and Key y themes emes

Auckland’s existing employment land is under pressure, All three areas are significantly impacted by network congestion and local transport issues. While enough employment land may be available across Auckland, available sites do not necessarily fit with business needs and preferences. Many businesses reported recruitment and retention challenges, some of which are associated with wider labour market conditions, but there were also examples of specific skills shortages.

programme to upskill businesses

challenges

• The circular economy designs out waste and pollution, keeps products

and materials in use and regenerates natural systems

• An economic study in 2018 found Auckland could be billions of dollars

better off with much lower carbon emissions by 2030 if we shifted to a circular economy

• XLabs is a series of five one-day workshops, every Friday over five

weeks, February – March 2020, bookended by two events

• Registration costs $900 per person (+GST), with a small number of

places available at a koha rate

Auckland’s screen industry, but also highlight potential pressures on crew availability and overall training
