Description
Presenter: Scott Hodek from the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development (Office of Economic Advisors)
We invite you to dive deeper into the conversation of workforce. Wisconsin now has more people employed and more private sector jobs than at any time in its history. The number of retiring Baby Boomers nearly max the influx of new workers, resulting in a slow growing workforce and placing constraints on the ability by employers across all industries to hire talent. Scott’s presentation will help you better understand the relationship between labor markets and other economic and demographic trends to help you be more successful in your organization.
Also learn about exciting new Work River Falls opportunities coming this fall!
Q&A to follow presentation.
