You don’t have to simply hope that there will be a skilled workforce available when your workforce begins to retire. You can actually do something about it now.
Sign the 5% Pledge and pay it forward. For every 20 employees in your organization hire one temporary intern, co-op, high school student or long-term unemployed individual this summer. It is a simple idea that will have a valuable pay off in your company’s future. It has worked for your colleagues and it can work for you.
