Assist Packers Sanitation
Services Employees in Orland
INDIANAPOLIS (September 7, 2016)
- The Indiana Department of Workforce Development (DWD) and its community
partner, Northeast Indiana Works, have
activated the state’s Rapid Response team to assist employees affected by the
announcement that Packers Sanitation Services intends to close its facility in
Orland.
The state’s Rapid Response team is activated when a significant
layoff or plant closure occurs and pairs knowledgeable WorkOne staff with
displaced employees to move them toward a plan for re-employment as soon as
possible. Activities focus on connecting displaced employees with local
employment opportunities as well as providing resume assistance, interview
workshops and skills assessments.
The time and location of the first Rapid Response session will be
announced in the near future. For more information, please contact Northeast
Indiana Works at 260-469-4308.
