Transforming Training & Policies to Meet Future Demand and Offering Increased Workforce Flexibility Why Attend Redesigning the Healthcare Workforce 2010? The current pressures on the Australian health care system demand some radical surgery. About 9 per cent of Australians are already working in the health sector. This is the fastest growing employment sector, and it is predicted that by 2025 some 20 per cent of the workforce will need to be engaged in health-related jobs if we are to deliver the present level of services, let alone innovations. This increased demand for health workers -- driven by an ageing population, many of whom have chronic diseases -- will place significant pressures on a workforce already under stress.
