Survey will help identify job needs
Filling out one of 42,000 surveys being sent to.
homes throughout Bruce County and south Grey
County last week could -have benefits to those taking
the time. -
A Labor Market Information Survey is being
conducted by the Bruce and Saugeen Community
Futures Committees and the Walkerton Canada
Employment Centre. It is being conducted to identify
specific needs for training and employment.
According to Barb Fisher, manager of the Bruce
Community Futures Committee, it is one of the
largest surveys. of its kind to be conducted in the area
and she is hoping for a large response.
"The whole goal is to really impress upon people to
fill it out," she said.
The survey addresses such topics as employment
status, skills, future employment desires, training and
retraining needs and interest in self employment.
Many of the questions are personal but Mrs. Fisher
said the information is kept confidential.
Although it is not required, the benefits from filling
out the survey can come by including your name and
some personal background information.
When the survey is summarized later this summer,
a need for specific programs can be identified. As a
result, training programs could be created.
By including your name and address, Mrs. Fisher
said they will be able to contact people who have
shown an interest in a specific area and get them
involved in,a specific program created based on their
responses.
Historically, she said most surveys get a response of ,
between five and 10 per cent.
"We're .looking for much higher than that," said
Mrs. Fisher. She said she would be disappointed with
anything less.
v The survey is open to anyone over the age of '15
and Mrs. Fisher encouraged everyone, employed or
unemployed, to participate.
"Thepeople out there should see (the survey) is for
them," she said.
People will have about three weeks to fill out the
survey and send it back to the Bruce Community
Futures Committee where the information will be
compiled with the help of software developed by
Georgian College.
Mrs. Fisher said there is already interest in the
results of the survey from area school boards, the
Grey -Bruce Industrial Training Advisory Committee
and private trainers. .
A summary of the survey results will be developed
and Mrs. Fisher expects it to be ready by the end of
July.
The deadline for completion of the survey is June 4.
The survey allows for two people to participate in
each household. Anyone requiring additional copies
can contact the Bruce or Saugeen Community Futures
Committee.
Thief makes himself
right at home
A 2f -year-old Kincardine man
has been charged with five counts
of breaking and entering and one
count of breaking and entering with
the intent to commit a theft.
He was found naked and hiding
under a bed when OPP arrived at a
Point Clark cottage on May 13 at
about 2:30 p.m.
The police had been. called when
someone found the cottage insecure
and noticed a strange vehicle
parked at that.property.
Staff Sergeant Al Neville said it
looked like the man had been sleep-
ing on the bed and, when he heard
the police arrive, crawled under-
neath to hide.
A. stereo, limited edition Roberto
Alomar print, tape deck and CD
player were stolen from the cottage
and have not been recovered.
While searching the cottage,
police found a small quantity of
cocaine and have charged the man
with possession of a narcotic.
OPP also seized burglary tools
from . the suspect's car.
Staff Sergeant Neville said it" ,
appears the macs had been at the
cottage over night because food and
liquor had been consumed:
During the investigation, OPP
have learned of four more entries to
boat houses .and sheds along Vic-
toria Road which may be related.
OPP are investigating several
other break and enters that have
occurred in the area and may be
connected [including three break
and enters at Boiler Beach Road
cottages.
Those break and enters occurred
between May 8 and May 16. Noth-
ing seems to have been stolen from
them but Staff Sergeant Neville said
it appears someone had been eating
and sleeping in the cottages.
On May 12, a woman saw a man
taking property from a vacant farm
house and loading it into a pick up
truck in Bruce Township.
The'land is owned by herself and
her husband and she tried to get the
man to stop. but he wouldn't.
