Louisville Plans to Expand and Diversify its Workforce
Even as Louisville Metro has seen its economy expand in recent years it still tends to lag in measures of prosperity and inclusion marked by slow employment and wage growth particularly among communities of color Moreover soaring needs for infrastructure investment in aging pipes wastewater treatment facilities and numerous other assetsmdashtotaling $43 billion in the next 20 yearsmdashonly adds to Louis-villersquos built environment challenges With these challenges however comes opportunity Louisville and Jefferson County Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD) the regionrsquos wastewater utility is working alongside other local leaders to identify develop and retain skilled workers from the surrounding community to simultaneously improve infrastructure and pro-mote more inclusive economic development To accomplish its workforce goals MSD leadership knows they cannot act alone Their response is to work with a variety of local educational training and nonprofit groupsmdashpaving the way for internship and mentorship opportunitiesmdashwhile collaborating more with other local employers including suppliers and contractors For example beyond identifying younger workers and other nontraditional workers to consider water careers MSD has sought ways to support more minority and women business enterprises (MBEs and WBEs) In particular by requiring contractors to hire a percentage of their workforce locally for all construction projects that exceed $5 million in cost MSD is helping to stretch the net and capture a broader pool of the local labor market

Louisville Plans to Expand and Diversify its Workforce
Even as Louisville Metro has seen its economy expand in recent years it still tends to lag in measures of prosperity and inclusion marked by slow employment and wage growth particularly among communities of color Moreover soaring needs for infrastructure investment in aging pipes wastewater treatment facilities and numerous other assetsmdashtotaling $43 billion in the next 20 yearsmdashonly adds to Louis-villersquos built environment challenges With these challenges however comes opportunity Louisville and Jefferson County Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD) the regionrsquos wastewater utility is working alongside other local leaders to identify develop and retain skilled workers from the surrounding community to simultaneously improve infrastructure and pro-mote more inclusive economic development To accomplish its workforce goals MSD leadership knows they cannot act alone Their response is to work with a variety of local educational training and nonprofit groupsmdashpaving the way for internship and mentorship opportunitiesmdashwhile collaborating more with other local employers including suppliers and contractors For example beyond identifying younger workers and other nontraditional workers to consider water careers MSD has sought ways to support more minority and women business enterprises (MBEs and WBEs) In particular by requiring contractors to hire a percentage of their workforce locally for all construction projects that exceed $5 million in cost MSD is helping to stretch the net and capture a broader pool of the local labor market
