The Labour Market Group (LMG), in partnership with the government of Ontario, presents the In-Demand Skilled Trades survey in an effort to inform changes to Ontario’s apprenticeship and skilled trades survey.
The government has identified that modernizing the apprenticeship and skilled trades system is a key component to support a strong future economy.
Building off the knowledge and insights of local labour markets, LMG will complete an analysis of in-demand skilled trades and shortages throughout the Nipissing and Parry Sound districts.
“If you are an employer who struggles to find employees in trades related occupations, we want to hear from you,” said LMG Executive Director Stacie Fiddler.
“The objective of the project is to identify the skilled trades that are in demand, and recruitment challenges and practices of local employers for the skilled trades in the Nipissing and Parry Sound districts. This work will not only support local workforce planning but also complement the Province’s apprenticeship modernization efforts by providing timely, community-focused perspectives on labour market conditions for the skilled trades.”
