Scholars describe this in four words: VUCA, which stands for Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity. As we see now is the Covid-19 pandemic, which spread so rapidly that we humans could not prepare in time to take action. The situation has had severe and ongoing impacts throughout the world, not only in public health but affecting the economy and spreading widespread impact on the labour market and employment.”
The project was organized to provide the Ministry of Labour’s personnel with knowledge and understanding of the workforce economy both in Thailand and internationally. The knowledge will enable the application for further study, analysis, and research to drive the workforce economy’s mission effectively. The project was attended by 80 government officials and civil servants from the Ministry of Labour.
