Despite layoffs, Australia’s tech sector adds 70,000 jobs

/ Human Resource Community
ardorcomm-news

Despite significant job losses, Australia’s technology sector grew by 8% in the preceding year. Notably, the sector was able to add over 10,000 new jobs in the first quarter of 2023. According to research done by the Tech Council of Australia (TCA), between January and March 2023, 10,500 jobs were created. Additionally, the country’s technology job opportunities increased by 70,000 jobs, totalling 935,000 positions by February 2023. The survey also found a striking pattern: for every post that was lost in the most recent quarter, 20 new ones were created. Most of these jobs came from the indirect technology sector, which includes tech-intensive professions in non-tech fields like retail, banking, professional services, government, and mining. Additionally, the growth in tech employment in non-traditional tech industries denotes a sizable and long-lasting structural change in the Australian economy. Additionally, it emphasises how thoroughly digital skills have been incorporated into all spheres of the business. Tech personnel are in high demand for their highly transferrable IT skills, which can be applied to any organisation, wherever in the nation. The tech industry has also grown to be a substantial employer in all states and territories, ranking as Australia’s seventh-largest employer. Additionally, compared to the average job in each state and territory’s economy, IT jobs are growing more quickly. The research asserts that this expansion highlights the benefits of working in the technology sector, particularly the flexibility it provides and the capacity for skill transfer between various professions. This expansion also fits with the council’s objective of creating 1.2 million tech employment by 2030, which is backed by the government.

Dr. I. Cicil Ignatius, Head of the Department, Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan Engineering College, shares his experience of attending the summit

/ Interviews

“Whatever I learned today, I will deliver the same to all the faculty members in our institution,” says Dr. I. Cicil Ignatius, Head of the Department, Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan Engineering College in an interview with Pratik Ghosh, Content Writer, ArdorComm Media Group at the ‘New Normal – Education Leadership Summit & Awards 2023’ #ELSAChennai #ELSATamilNadu How are you feeling to witness the New Normal Education Leadership Summit and Awards in Chennai? I feel very proud and happy to participate in this event. Actually, I did not know about these activities. I casually came across it on Facebook and clicked on it. A person contacted me and conducted an interview about me and my institution. I didn’t expect it to go to this extent, but the resource persons and the content they delivered were marvellous. I gained a lot of information regarding admissions, reverberation acoustics of buildings, and new software related to the progression of an institution. I’m very thankful to New Normal scheme. Whatever I learned today, I will deliver the same to all the faculty members in our institution. It will be a great support to our institution and me. I learned a lot. Thank you. In this kind of forum where we bring together education leaders, EdTech experts, and government representatives, how does this benefit the education sector? I noticed that this forum mainly focuses on higher officials, but it does not give much importance to the basic needs of the students. If teaching strategies were also involved in this program, the teachers would benefit more. The learning process is the main root cause of institutions, and if more importance is given to teaching and learning processes, it would be very beneficial for teachers and students. I hope in future programs, this aspect will be included. I’m happy to participate in future programs as well. Thank you. Any message for ArdorComm Media Group? It’s a wonderful program. You are doing a service to society, especially to the education sector. It is very essential and important nowadays.

Air India has updated their retirement privilege leave policy for employees

/ Human Resource Community
ardorcomm-news

Regarding the accumulation of privilege leaves for employees who would be retiring within the current and succeeding fiscal years, Air India recently updated its policy. The airline, which is a part of the Tata group, first modified its privilege leave policy in March to better reflect the state of the market. All employees were only permitted to accumulate 60 days of privilege leaves in a single fiscal year starting on April 1 in accordance with the updated policy. However, Campbell Wilson, CEO and managing director of Air India, proposed a relaxation for those who have expressed worries about approaching retirement. He noted that the airline had previously resolved that any privilege leaves lasting longer than 60 days would be forfeited in a mail to the employees. However, after speaking with external tax authorities, Air India was able to come to an arrangement to postpone the redemption of luxury leaves for individuals who will be retiring in the following two fiscal years (FY 2023–24 and 2024–25) for more than 60 days. Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, they were unable to ensure the same ability for employees retiring beyond this time. Employees who are close to reaching superannuation can benefit from this decision because it will give them better retirement benefits. With the relaxation, eligible staff members can now take advantage of the tax exemption on leave encashments up to Rs 25 lakh during retirement. In the meanwhile, Air India is actively implementing its “Vihaan.AI” five-year transformation strategy. Campbell Wilson and other members of the management and Vihaan project teams will be visiting various cities around the nation in the upcoming months to interact with employees in person.

The 54-year-old institution Sadhvidya Pratishtanam (SVP), which promotes the classical language, has launched Samskrita Sambhashanashala, its fifth online program on teaching spoken Sanskrit. According to a press release from the institute, SVP, founded by prominent Sanskrit scholar, the late Prof Padamnabha Sharma, aspires to teach Sanskrit to as many as 5,000 individuals by 2027. A former senior bureaucrat who is also SVP’s patron emeritus, CV Gopinath, inaugurated the session. Even though it is the language of the ancient scriptures, there are only a few thousand people who can speak it. However, a few villages, such Sasana (Odisha), Jhiri (Rajasthan), and (Karnataka), have embraced it as a spoken language. The SVP has a faculty that includes, among others, former senior Sanskrit professors of the University Prof. Smt. Dharma, Dr. Pitambar Poudel, and Dr. Shankar Dutt Pandey for the classes that are held in two batches every Saturday evening. After completing the Sambhashanashala, students are urged to join the SVP’s Samskrita Swadhyaya Mandala to continue practising spoken Sanskrit.
