Beyond Burnout: Building a More Resilient Public Sector Workforce

Beyond Burnout: Building a More Resilient Public Sector Workforce
Thank you for attending!

Tune In Tuesday, August 18 at 2:00 PM EDT

Public sector organizations are under increasing pressure to do more with fewer resources. Staffing shortages, rising service demands, budget constraints, and increasing workforce turnover are making it more difficult than ever to maintain essential services while supporting employee well-being. Burnout is one of the clearest signs of these challenges—but it's only one symptom of a broader workforce resilience issue.

Join UKG and guest experts from Mercer for a thought-provoking discussion on how public sector leaders can build more resilient organizations by combining workforce intelligence, leadership strategies, and organizational design. Rather than reacting to staffing crises, leading agencies are using data-driven insights to identify emerging workforce risks, improve workload distribution, optimize existing technology investments, and make informed decisions that strengthen both operational performance and the employee experience.

Whether you're responsible for HR, operations, finance, or technology, you'll gain practical strategies for breaking the cycle of burnout, overtime, and turnover while creating a workforce that is better equipped to adapt, maintain service levels, and meet the evolving needs of your community.

In this webinar, you'll learn how to:

  • Understand the workforce trends driving burnout, turnover, and operational disruption across public sector organizations.
  • Use workforce intelligence to identify staffing risks earlier and make more informed workforce decisions.
  • Combine technology, leadership strategies, and process improvements to build long-term workforce resilience.
  • Balance employee well-being with the operational demands of delivering reliable public services.
  • Create a continuous improvement approach that strengthens workforce resilience while supporting your agency's mission.
