Homemakers organize committee
The Town and Country' Homemakers
Agency has recently hired homemakers to
meet the presently. -increasing demand,
mostly from the Chronic Home Care
Program. Private client demand remains
constant.
Last month a safety standards committee
of homemakers was newly organized to look
into identifying possible hazards in the
workplace. This committee .will be coming
• - up with recommendations for greater safety
measures and means of preventing
acct eats on the job.
One of the many items to be considered is
proper footware. Also, the. agency is
choosing an attractive style of uniform to be
worn by the homemakers in an attempt to
standardize dress in the workplace.
A number ofpresentations were
highlighted • at the March 17 Inservice
Workshop, attended by over 40
homemakers. Betty Cardno, director of the
Huron Home Care Program and Mr. Aung
Myint, . of the Clinton Public Hospital
physiotherapy department, offered
information and instructions to the
homemakers.
Jim Howson and representatives from the
Blyth Fire Department spoke on how to
handle emergencies.
.lean-- Young, executive director,
commented, "The homemakers greeted the
with inter lit and- a positive
attitude."
The next inservice day will be held in
May.
On April 25 the board of directors will
meet in the Huronview board room for their
regualr,monthly meeting.

• By Toby Rainey
"In today's job market, the most ianpor•
ttant thing you have to do is to sell yourself,
and I don't mean what you're thinking,
Bonnie Reberg told a small group of Huron
County women attending the Women and.
Employment Workshop • in Exeter last
• Saturday.
"If you can write a good resume, you can
get a good job," she -promised„ theu outlined
the various major ty.m of resume and the
application of each. There is no such thing
as an ideal resume," she said. "Today, each
one must be written differently, tailored to
fit the needs of the employer."
Trained as a teacher when "all you had to
do was remain upright and have si urtina,'"
Ms. Reberg is a strong advocate of career
changes, and of self-assessment and
research in seeking work.
"I quit teaching because I had to spend too
much of my time being a cop," Ms. Reberg
explains. "Nobody had ever told me that I'd
have to be'a cop, and I hated it. I didn't want
absolute power over people."
Pointing out that career -hopping has lost
much of the stigma of former years, Ms.
in the ;morning} Bovine Reberg led t i - group
through a solidly -researched p .I for,sue-
cessful job -hunting, covering su•: topics as
self-assessment, researching t market,
Reberg said that •most,of today- s graduates
could expect to make four , five major
changes of direction in a lifetime, a
phenomena reflecting the changing
lifestyles of the 80's.
"We change - the world changes. Try to do
as much in this life as possible," Ms. Reberg
shop successful
adv,
SusHl . Wilmer, the second speaker in the
program, agrees that women need not re -
'nein stuck in an unsatisfactory job or
career throughout a lifetime, then led the
group in a discussion of ways to create one's
own jib.
Ms. Wilmer stressed that you should first
identify the reasons you want to work, and,
if they are valid, should research the
market. She identified that the most com-
mon ways of creating work are through self-
employment, co-ops, and non-profit
organizations,
She stressed that in order for a small
business to become a success, it must offer a
quality product to a clearly identified
market, and warned that the most common
reasons for failure are poor management
and poor financial planning.
During the Creative Job Search workshop
the hidden job market, interview strategy
and resume writing.
In the afternoon, Ms. Wismer asked the
group to outline a perfect job, then led the
group in a discussionLof ways to make this
position a reality.
Both counsellors agreed that looking for
work is a hard job and an enormous amount
of work, but that it can be a challenging and
rewarding experience if done properly.
During the day, through skillful
counselling and gentle humor, both
facilitators forged strong bonds within the
group, creating a best -of -friends intimacy
among the women, most of whom attended
the workshop because they are dissatisfied
with their present employment and are
seems change.
Ms, Wimier is a private consultant under
contract to the Rural Learning Association
o f Guelph,, and Ms- Reberg is a counsellor at
the Huron County Centre for Children and
Youth in Clinton, as well as being a consul-
tant
onsultant with Learningtree Resources in Lucan.
The workshop was sponsored by Women To -
athe final event in a two-month series of
ctivities of interest to Huron County
Women.
A second Employment Workshop will like-
ly be planned for the area if the demand
warrants it, and a self-help group for women
with problems in employment is now being
formed under the direction of Toby Rainey, .
Co -Ordinator for Women Today. More infor-
mation may be obtained by calling 482-9706.
