NYS Dept of Labor is Empowering the Next Generation!
Proctor High School students had an incredible opportunity to sit down with Commissioner of the NYS Department of Labor, Roberta Reardon for a roundtable discussion yesterday.
Students got an inside look at Commissioner Reardon's journey to becoming Labor Commissioner, the impact of her role, and her favorite part of the job. Students asked important and engaging questions about career opportunities, state initiatives, and how the Department of Labor supports young people like them.
One exciting topic that Commissioner Reardon shared? Digital working papers! A new proposal that will make it easier for students entering the workforce (and guardians too!) !
The Department of Labor is all about:
- Creating job opportunities
- Transforming the workplace
- Empowering youth
The Utica City School District cannot thank Commissioner Reardon and the Utica Department of Labor team enough for taking the time to visit Proctor and engage with our students. We can't wait for your next visit!
