OUR LATEST MAX MINUTES
Workforce continues to be the most critical issue facing existing manufacturers in Georgia. With more manufacturing jobs available than there are Georgians, stagnant growth in labor force participation, and declining birth rates, the problem isn’t having enough jobs; it’s having enough people. Now, more than ever, Georgia’s manufacturers must think of new ways to address workforce risks before they become overwhelming.
In March 2024, Rhonda Waite, Director, Policy, Training & Compliance, with Technical College System of Georgia joined MAX to review the WorkSource GA Portal, which replaced the Employ Georgia system in November 2023. This innovative resource directly connects job seekers and employers across Georgia, further positioning the state at the forefront of career advancement and skill development. The system also provides crucial labor market insights, helping businesses navigate the state’s dynamic employment environment.
