Reasons why becoming an Employer benefits your company:

 

  • Cost affective for the company

  • Beneficial to have a youth fill in when a staff member leaves on vacation or leave of absence 

  • Give back to the community and get your business name recognized

  • Gain more time to concentrate on major job duties, instead of just the "busy work"

 

There are two programs in which you can choose from to get involved with. Contact us today for more detailed information.

 

YouthWorks Employment Program-   Local youth 14-21 years old apply to be a part of a great learning experience. The program offers a Signaling Success Workshop in which youth learn about the skills required to become a succesful employee. Following the workshop, youth are provided with a short term work experience of six or nine weeks at a work place related to their career interests.
