The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of generational differences on the levels of skill mismatch within multi-generational work forces. The study examines how skills don’t align well across different generations in a workforce and explores how this relates to the differences between generations. The study utilized data from the Skills Measurement Employer Survey 2016-2017 (Wave 3), the research examines the prevalence of skills mismatches across diverse age groups and professional sectors. The study employed Kruskal-Walli’s test to investigate the presence of a significant relationship between the level of skill mismatches and generational differences. The findings reveal that the observed skills mismatches may be attributed to generational differences. The implications of these findings are profound, suggesting that organizations should adopt tailored approaches such as customized training programs, regular skills assessments, and adaptable work arrangements to effectively address skills gaps and enhance overall workforce performance. The study advocates for further research to comprehensively understand the underlying causes of skills mismatches in the different generational cohorts and develop effective strategies to rectify them. This study contributes significantly to the ongoing discourse on skills mismatches in multigenerational workforces, providing valuable insights for organizations striving to optimize their workforce composition and foster a more harmonious and productive work environment for employees across all age groups.
