Viable Calgary Workforce Inclusion Plan

Viable Calgary’s Workforce Inclusion Plan provides the transportation industry with additional options to help promote an increasingly diverse workforce that includes individuals with disabilities.  Having access to these resources and expertise will make staffing options easier for your companies.
 It was not long ago that the industry experienced major shortages in staffing, stemming from an overheated boom economy.  Although the economic downturn has enabled us to get better control of our staffing needs, the Workforce Inclusion Plan provides our membership with a systematic framework for securing and retaining new talent that will be of tremendous value into the years ahead .  Ultimately, Viable Calgary’s Workforce Inclusion Plan will better enable your company to find the right person for the right job in the face of the changing workforce environment.

Building and Educating Tomorrow’s Workforce (BETW) is Alberta’s long-term comprehensive labour force strategy.  It serves as a framework for government and stakeholders to work collaboratively towards addressing labour force challenges and issues.

The BETW newsletter is normally published twice a year, with each issue focusing on a different theme from the strategy: Inform, Attract, Develop or Retain.  The purpose of the newsletter is to keep all Government of Alberta stakeholders informed of actions and activities occurring in response to BETW. The Fall 2010 BETW newsletter is now online.
