Vancouver, British Columbia — EDP Software is the maker of SchedulePro , a custom workforce scheduling solution that adapts to the unique needs of organizations. The Vancouver-based firm will be attending and serving as a promotional sponsor at the 4th Annual Workforce Planning in Mining Conference, held by American Leaders for an exclusive audience of Senior Executives in workforce planning, workforce management, human resources, and talent management.
In a rapidly changing competitive landscape, Canadian mining companies are facing several challenges in human resources management. Wider economic trends such as the impending retirement of the Baby Boom generation and the difficulty in attracting and retaining top talent are presenting unique problems for an industry that relies on a highly technical and skilled workforce. High-level management is becoming increasingly aware of the impact that a well-built workforce plan has on future success.
The 4th Annual Workforce Planning in Mining will focus on key topics that drive excellence in workforce planning and broader business strategy. This intensive 2-day conference will feature workshops on overcoming operational challenges, talent recruitment and retention programs, as well as promoting workplace diversity. American Leaders, which organizes and executes in-depth industry events across North America, will bring together an exclusive audience of senior executives in the mining industry to discuss key issues and learn about the latest technologies and best practices for workforce management. The conference details are as follows:
