In response to a county-wide
economic development update,
North Huron Reeve Bernie Bailey
wants his staff and constituents to
know that one of council’s highest
priorities is addressing the labour
shortage in the Wingham area.
On Sept. 3, Bailey, in response to a
report on economic development
issues in June and July, said that he
and Chief Administrative Officer
Dwayne Evans have been working
diligently to try and find solutions
for the labour shortage.
The report, compiled by the Huron
County Economic Development
Department, indicated that Wescast
Inc. has moved production of a new
line to its Wingham machine shop,
resulting in a need for more than 50
new employees.
“While this is wonderful news for
the community and the economy, the
tight labour market has made it
difficult for the company to find and
hire new employees,” the report
states. “The [Huron County
Economic Development
Department] has facilitated meetings
between employers and the
community to generate ideas for
short-term solutions, and has also
been active in raising the issue with
local and regional media.”
Bailey said that North Huron
Council and staff have been active in
seeking solutions to the issue.
“Dwayne and I have been at the
table for this since day one,” he said.
“We’ve put a lot of time and North
Huron has put a lot of time into this
even though only one of the factories
involved is in North Huron.”
Bailey said that private industries
are working towards solutions, but
there are problems, specifically with
housing.
He said his contacts at Wescast say
the company has reached out to the
London and Kitchener areas to try
and recruit employees, but having a
stock of affordable homes for people
in such positions is an ongoing
concern.
