Frontline Focused: Building Thriving and Equitable Workplaces Webinar Series

This Spring, CareerSTAT launches a new webinar series, Frontline Focused: Building Thriving and Equitable Workplaces to help CareerSTAT members address two intersecting problems. First, in the wake of the pandemic and related economic shifts, many healthcare providers are constantly struggling with short-staffing and high turnover. Second, even as the sector grows more diverse, that diversity is mostly reflected in low-paying, high-stress frontline roles. And while there are numerous opportunities for advancement within healthcare, there is consistent underrepresentation of BIPOC, immigrants and refugees, and women in mid-level and executive roles.    

To address both systemic exclusion and consistent recruitment and retention challenges in the healthcare industry, we must open our minds & organizations to new ways of doing business. Frontline Focused will explore practices to remove barriers for underserviced populations, including strategies to engage immigrant and refugee workers and discuss tactics for combatting gender-based violence. 

  The series will offer webinars through June 2023 and will include content specific to immigrant and refugee workers, job quality frameworks, human-centered design principles, and trauma-informed practices. Each session will have an hour of content delivery followed by an optional 30-minute session for peer learning among healthcare colleagues.
