Labor Market Information –ABCs
Local Economic Event Scenario
In this example, a large manufacturer (500+ employees) is
permanently reducing its workforce by 60%, including centralizing
all its administrative functions in a facility in another state.
As a direct result (not to mention the indirect impacts), the local
area will experience the displacement of many persons
concentrated in the following occupations:
• Professional Occupations: Accountants, Management
positions
• Technical Occupations: Accounting Clerks, Industrial
Machinery Mechanics, Welders
• Low-skilled occupations: Team Assemblers,
Packagers, Freight and Stock Handlers
Key Strategic Decision Point:
Re-employment?
v. Skills update?
v. Re-training?
Labor Market Information –ABCs
a)
Professional Occupation
Target = Skills Update/Re-employment
In this example, several of this firm’s accountants
graduated several years ago and while they have
kept up with standard practices and regulations,
several of the clients speak of a need to upgrade
their skills with modern accounting software
packages.

b)
Technical Occupation
Target = Re-employment
In this example, both the few industrial
machinery mechanics and several
skilled welders being laid off are in
demand by other employers within the
region based upon job listings and
requests/concerns from local
employers.

c)
Low-Skilled Occupation #1
Target = Re-Training Team Assemblers
In this example, with a short-term skills update
in basic solar panel fabrication the assemblers
from this facility would be available for a local
firm that is exploring opportunities in the
residential and commercial energy efficiency
improvement field (given available federal
stimulus funding).
