With approximately 220,000 workers poised to retire, there is an urgent need to attract new talent to sustain the industry. The discussion emphasized the challenges of replenishing the workforce, as current efforts to recruit and train new employees are deemed critical for the sector's future viability. Stakeholders acknowledged the importance of developing strategies to engage younger generations and ensure a smooth transition as experienced workers exit the field. The meeting underscored the necessity of addressing this workforce gap to maintain the energy sector's operational capacity and innovation.
