The Algoma Workforce Investment Corporation (AWIC) along with community partners are working together to conduct an '18 months out' employer survey to understand the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on local businesses, organizations, and our workforce. Your feedback will help us to regularly communicate your needs in a timely and coordinated manner to municipal, provincial and federal governments, to support the ongoing economic recovery.

The goals of this survey are to:
  • Assess how businesses and their workforces have been affected since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. (These responses will be compared with data from previous surveys conducted earlier in the pandemic.)
  • Find out if and how local businesses and organizations are experiencing additional challenges now that the emergency measures are slowly being lifted - including Labour Shortages.
  • Assess the number of employers with remote work places and workers.
  • Gain some insight directly from employers on the challenges and opportunities as we move towards recovery.

Completing the Survey:
  • Although you might receive a request to complete the survey from more than one source, we ask that you complete the survey only once.
  • Please answer all questions as accurately and completely as possible.
  • The survey is approximately 20 questions and should take about 15 minutes to complete.
