Elevating the Workforce: Focus on People

Wisconsin counties face the same recruitment and retention challenges as many other industries. The August 2024 issue provides an overview of the demographic workforce changes and how the economic development practices have evolved to today’s world of jobs following people.

The issue also highlights the work of three counties to retain and recruit their workers. Other articles include a Legal Issues column on recent federal Fair Labor Standards Act overtime rule changes and a column on a county’s efforts to build opioid and fentanyl awareness.
