Commissioner's Message |
"While the pace of economic growth is easing, Vermont's labor market is still full of opportunity," said Kendal Smith, Interim Commissioner at the Vermont Department of Labor. "This report measures only filled positions, yet with an estimated 17,000 job openings statewide, there’s enormous potential to strengthen our economy by connecting employers with the talent they need. To help close this gap, the Vermont Department of Labor works closely with employers on recruitment strategies and supports job seekers in finding employment and identifying training opportunities. For more information, or to connect with your local Department of Labor office, visit labor.vermont.gov."
