Agriculture Workforce Development Council's Labor Roadshow
November 15 - November 18, 2016
10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Labor Roadshow Will Help Clarify Labor Regulations
A stable, well-trained workforce is the lifeblood of agriculture. The Agriculture Workforce Development Council (AWDC) was formed to raise awareness of on-going labor issues and to bring resources to farm operators so they can adopt best practices. Even well managed operations can struggle with understanding and filtering the multitude of legal and regulatory requirements associated with all aspects of managing a workforce.
AWDC will sponsor the labor roadshow, "Helping Agriculture Employers Stay Current on Employment Rules and Best Practices," at four locations across the state the week of Nov. 15. The full day program is specifically for farm owners and managers to gain tools and information to help their farm business attract and retain skilled workers.
