Hamilton's Multi-Year Labour Market Priorities
Following are the top priorities that were determined by the community to be the most important to be addressed over the next few years.
1. Soft Skills Development
Fundamental soft skills need to be encouraged for those who are new to the labour market and for those with barriers to employment.
2. Designated Groups Engagement with the Labour Market
Designated groups such as youth, immigrants, persons with disabilities, visible minorities, and Aboriginals face specific challenges to finding employment.
3. Understanding Increasing and Evolving Skills Requirements
Technological advancement across all industries requires multi-skilled workers at all levels who are adaptable, flexible and willing to learn.
4. Exploring Opportunities in Hamilton's Diversifying Economy
Broaden job seekers' awareness of the growth of opportunities and different work environments through labour market information and other resources.
