In today’s evolving job market, maintaining a stable workforce is a challenge for many employers. High turnover and retention issues, particularly in entry-level roles, can impact productivity and drive up costs. To address these challenges, United Way of Northern New York offers Workplace Stability workshops, designed to equip leaders with practical tools to reduce turnover, improve retention, and build stronger teams.
What Are Workplace Stability Workshops?
Part of the nationally recognized Bridges out of Poverty framework, these workshops help employers understand the barriers that employees face—both inside and outside of work—that can impact their stability and job performance.
Workshops are tailored to meet your needs, with options for varying lengths and formats, making them ideal for C-suite executives, managers, and HR professionals.
Why Participate?
“Even in a strong job market, life happens,” says Dawn Cole, CEO of United Way of Northern New York and a certified Workplace Stability trainer. “A car repair, childcare disruption, or unexpected medical bill can derail someone’s stability and their ability to stay employed. These workshops help employers support their workforce effectively.”
