2025 Workforce Plan – Evolving Together' Consultation papers
We are proud to launch our 2025 Workforce Plan—Evolving Together consultation papers, which set the course for future action.
The consultation papers identify medium to short-term challenges, including:
• skills shortages
• retention and recruitment issues
• gender diversity gaps
• declining VET enrolments
• the need for the workforce to adapt to technological change.
It also outlines long-term structural shifts such as decarbonisation, the move to Net Zero, electrification, and sustainability.
The consultation papers aim to gather input and guidance from stakeholders to align our strategies and actions with industry needs and ensure effective stewardship. Our consultation-driven, industry-led approach ensures that the voice of our stakeholders is heard when shaping policies and strategies.
As a Jobs and Skills Council, we will continue to collaborate on and support:
• In-depth research and data analysis to drive our decision-making and implementation.
• The delivery of timely, high-quality education and pathway solutions and strategies for the mining and automotive industries
• Opportunities to support VET and pathways to improve outcomes
