16 September 2022, 9.00-10.30 am
The Supply Chain Committee will hold a Sharing Session on the topic of “Supply Chain Resilience & Well-being of the Personnel”.
SYNOPSIS:
COVID-19 has disrupted global activities across all economic sectors and industries. The disruptions have been largely due to the lockdown measures adopted and implemented by countries globally as a health strategy to mitigate the impact of the pandemic’s spread on the human population. Production halts, movement restrictions of people and goods, border closures, logistical constraints, as well as the slowdown of trade and business activities and rising inflation and Out of Stocks have been the fall-outs of the COVID-19 lockdown measures.
All these have had a massive impact on the resilience of manpower as the KPIs remained intact on delivery and processes and constraints became hugely significant. The Supply Chain personnel suffered from overtime working, staff shortages and impaired human connections from lockdowns, while the exposure to health risks was heightened.
The physical and mental well-being of the people behind the supply chain resilience has become the paramount focus of the industry as the uncertainties owing to War and Shutdowns continue unabated to keep the businesses running. We welcome you to a face-to-face event wherein the speakers will share their insights on the key question of: How to apply an organisational strategy to maintaining workforce resilience in the post-pandemic era?
