EFC joins ‘WorkInSriLanka’ brain gain initiative
The Employers’ Federation of Ceylon recently signed a MoU with the WorkInSriLanka organisation, saying it was well aware of the increasingly difficult task many companies have in finding and retaining top talent in Sri Lanka.
“Sri Lanka needs knowledge workers. It is time that we move out from marketing ‘cheap labour’ and penetrate into the knowledge economy aggressively,” its Director General, Ravi Peiris said while signing the MOU with SL2College Chairman, Dr. Sanjiva Weerawarna who is a key member of the WorkInSriLanka team.
SL2College is a voluntary non-profit organization that aims to improve Sri Lanka’s knowledge and human capital pool by developing and retaining highly educated individuals. As part of this objective, SL2College has launched, ‘WorkInSriLanka’, a ‘brain gain’ initiative designed to showcase Sri Lanka as an attractive destination for professionals and businesses.
