WORKFORCE CONTRACT AMENDMENT - OIL AND GAS WORKERS | | | |
| | | | | | | | | Background | | In June of last year, H-GAC’s Board of Directors approved funding for Employment and Training Centers, Inc. to provide additional support to dislocated workers laid off as a result of the decline in the oil and gas industry. Employment and Training Centers, Inc. provides resume writing, interviewing and job search seminars to customers in areas where a significant number of layoffs have occurred. Employment and Training Centers, Inc. served 485 customers from June to December last year. |
| |
| | | | | | | | | Current Situation | With the approval of H-GAC's 2017 budget in December, we have additional funds available for service to these workers. Staff recommends amending Employment and Training Centers, Inc contract by adding $392,000 to serve an additional 450 workers dislocated from the oil and gas industry. |
