Helping Employers Find Skilled Workers
Employer services include developing and maintaining quality relationships
with employers to provide assistance with staffing needs and customized
training.
KCJI assists employers to find trained and job-ready workers
in these employment sectors:
- Manufacturing
- Construction
- Warehouse
- Short-haul truck driving
- Hazardous materials technician
- Office occupations
- Electronic assembly
- Certified nursing/hospital assistant
- Airport related jobs
Our services to employers are free of charge and include:
- Recruitment of a diverse pool of applicants
- Assessment and screening
- Providing qualified and skilled applicants with job readiness
training
- Regular contact with client for the first year of employment to
address job retention issues
- Support services to address barriers clients may encounter such
as childcare, transportation, and other emergency needs that may
arise.
Available jobs must pay a minimum of $9 per hour, preferably with
benefits. Jobs must be in one of our targeted sectors.
KCJI has a remarkable job retention rate of 89% which means that
89% of participants placed in jobs, remain in their jobs one year
from the date of job placement.
Because we serve low income participants, you may also qualify for
the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) that provides a tax credit
for hiring a low income individual.
We request your input as we continue to look at our new strategic
initiatives. This will ensure that we provide relevant vocational
skills training for KCJI job seekers to assist with your immediate
and long term needs.
