PACE Alliance Quarterly Member Breakfast
What Does Pella’s Workforce Really Look Like?
Finding and keeping employees continues to be one of the biggest conversations for our local businesses, but did you know there’s data that can help us better understand Pella’s workforce?
Join us for our upcoming PACE Quarterly Member Breakfast as Iowa Workforce Development walks us through the Pella Laborshed Report and, more importantly, shows you how to put the information to work in your business.
A Laborshed looks beyond city and county lines to identify where Pella’s workforce comes from and provides valuable insight into the people who may be willing to change or accept employment here.
The report digs into current and desired wages, occupations and skills, benefits, commuting patterns, job-search habits, education levels and what motivates workers to consider a new opportunity. You’ll also learn how to use the data to evaluate competitive wages for specific positions, understand how far potential employees are willing to commute and better gauge the workforce actually available to your business. Whether you’re hiring now or planning for future workforce needs, this is data every Pella employer can use.
