Minnesota Department of Human Rights: Updated Workforce Participation Goals for 2017
Minnesota Department of Human Rights Commissioner Kevin Lindsey announced increased Workforce Participation Goals for women and people of color throughout Minnesota for state construction contractors. These increased goals aim to reduce barriers to workforce entry, to respond to demographic changes, and to prepare for Minnesota’s emerging workforce shortage.
The Alliance agrees with MDHR that our state has the capacity to do much better at building an inclusive workforce — and will be better off for it.
