SUMMARY:Aspen Institute: Beyond 9 to 5 - Facilitating Good Jobs for People with Unpredictable Schedules
DESCRIPTION:The Aspen Institute is hosting Beyond 9 to 5: Facilitating Good Jobs for People with Unpredictable Schedules on Thursday\, December 4th\, from 2:00 PM to 3:15 PM. \nParenting and other caregiving responsibilities\, health challenges\, the pursuit of education and skills\, existing employment\, and other factors mean many people do not have a lot of predictability and consistency in their availability. Some may only be able to work a few hours a week and may not know week to week when that can happen. And yet\, many obviously need to work to get by and meet their basic needs. While app-based platforms have often been heralded for providing the flexibility workers in these situations need\, these jobs have often perpetuated low wages and low job quality standards. This conversation will explore how Workforce Investment Boards\, labor unions\, and businesses are adapting to this context and striving to ensure that those who need a flexible and adaptable work arrangement don’t have to endure low quality jobs and low wages. \nClick here to learn more and register.

DESCRIPTION:The National League of Cities (NLC) is hosting NextGen Recruiting: What Do Students Think of the Public Sector (and Why?) on Wednesday\, December 10th\, from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM. \nWhen do young people decide that local government is a rewarding career option?
