September 04, 2024 - Pittsburgh, PA
Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry (L&I) Executive Deputy Secretary Bill Trusky joined local officials for a ribbon cutting and job fair at the newly relocated PA CareerLink® Allegheny East to celebrate the opening of a location where Pennsylvania workers can boost their job skills and connect with local employers eager to fill vacancies in high-demand fields like information technology, human resources, healthcare and more. PA CareerLink® Allegheny East is administered by Partner4Work, a local workforce development board that connects job seekers with career opportunities and helps employers find and retain skilled workers. The new location at 300 Penn Center Boulevard, Suite 800, in Pittsburgh is part of Pennsylvania's network of 62 offices embedded in local communities and staffed with professionals who help workers find, obtain, and maintain family-sustaining employment. For employers, PA CareerLink® connects businesses directly with the skilled talent they need to fill critical positions in trades and emerging industries. "Governor Shapiro has said from day one of this Administration that our number one goal is to create real opportunity and real freedom for Pennsylvanians and their families - and that includes the opportunity to succeed in a well-paying, family-sustaining job," said Executive Deputy Secretary Trusky. "That's why we're working hard with our partners across the Commonwealth - like our friends at Partner4Work - to help lessen and ultimately remove the barriers to employment that so many Pennsylvanians face. PA CareerLink® locations are vital community resources that offer help at every step of the job-seeking process - and it's all free!"Speakers include:Rob Cherry - CEO, Partner for WorkSara Innamorato - Allegheny County ExecutiveU.S. Congresswoman Summer LeeState Senator Jay CostaBill Trusky - Deputy Exec.
