Looking to hire? Here’s a manpower pool waiting to be uncovered.

Women who have taken a career break and are looking to re-enter the workforce is an often-overlooked manpower source.

Women returning to the workforce are a motivated, driven group who have made returning to work a new priority in life. They bring with them rich work and life experience, valuable transferable skills, different perspectives, and creative ideas to your organisation. All these qualities make back-to-work women productive and desirable employees; and they can also play important roles in building a healthy and collaborative workplace culture.

The herCareer initiative can help companies find the most suitable talent and provide funding and training support so that women returning to work can transit smoothly into your organisation and bring these notable benefits to your business!

Here’s a list of training and funding support programmes that can help you tap on this experienced pool of female talents.
