“Workforce issues in primary agriculture and food manufacturing are critical and need to be addressed urgently,” said Jennifer Wright, Acting Executive Director at CAHRC. “While good work is being undertaken by many groups, industry also recognizes the gravity of the challenge, the need for new and different ways of doing things and most importantly the need for collaborative action.”
“We knew prior to the COVID-19 pandemic that our labour supply was insufficient to meet the demands of our industry. The vision for this roadmap is a reliable workforce with the skills needed to weather future crises and bring us towards a strong future.”
