Local Businesses: The NYS Department of Labor wants to hear from you.

From the NYS Department of Labor: "In 2021 and 2022, The Business Council teamed up with the New York State Department of Labor and Empire State Development to survey thousands of businesses on the challenges and needs in a world deeply changed by COVID. These results continue to shape workforce development practices and policy from the P-12 system to higher education and among training providers across New York State.

"This year, we are again partnering to gather real-time feedback on the state of the workforce and the needs of businesses in 2023!"

NOTE: Collective results from this survey will be used by the State to address needs. Individual responses will be kept confidential.

Please note: The survey will close at noon on Friday, April 28.
