Wage Survey Aims To Support Key Area Sectors

0

The Town of Gravenhurst’s Economic Development Team has contracted Sutherland HR Consulting Inc., to undertake a Wage Survey covering four key industries: Skilled Trades andConstruction, Hospitality and Tourism, Healthcare, and Retail. These sectors were selected based on responses to the 2021 Annual Business Review.

Information received will assist in determining ways in which the Town can help support Gravenhurst businesses in their efforts of attracting and retaining workers within these industries. “We are confident that the data collected during the Wage Survey will help us to understand underlying issues and root causes of our area’s labour inadequacies,” said Kayla Jager, Economic Development Coordinator. A final report, including survey analysis and recommendations, will be shared publicly once completed. All responses will remain confidential, and individual businesses and/or their responses will not be named in the final report.
