We encouraged an open communication between employers and Gen Zs to discuss on what Gen Zs want in the workplace.
Through exploring the unique perspectives, needs and values of Generation Z in the workplace, Kabel is building bridges between the older and newer generations to shape the future of work and moving towards creating a workplace environment that caters to the unique needs and expectations of the younger generation.

YOUTH EMPLOYMENT INITIATIVE
NETWORKING EVENT
In the current job market, there is a disconnect between the expectations of graduates and employers.
This impacts talent acquisition, retention, and workforce productivity, consequently hindering the progress of the nation as a hub for high-skilled professionals.
Malaysia needs at least 45% of high-skilled workers by 2030 to compete with leading countries and currently, only 26.5% of them are representing the nation’s workforce.
To ensure that we are not stuck in a low-skilled, low-wage workforce, it is our collective responsibility to develop highly skilled and technologically-adept young talents to move towards a more high-value added economy.
​
Our Youth Initiative Employment (YEI) Networking Event, that took place in September 2023, was an information hub on various industries, companies, and roles that are considered high-skilled for students’ consideration.
It was also a platform for employers to provide recent graduates and interns with high-skilled roles.
