Workforce & Training

Occupational profiles in the Greater Brunswick area demonstrate a balance of employees: administrative and managerial, professional, technical, sales, service, production and transportation.

Georgia is a right-to-work state that guarantees that membership or non-membership in a labor organization cannot be a condition of employment. We are also an employment-at-will state. Employees are terminable at the will of the employer and such termination cannot be grounds for cause of action against the employer. Employers must, of course, comply with all federal laws against discrimination.

  

Other state programs and services benefit both employers and employees. Due in large part to our participation in Georgia’s Quick Start program, our standards of job training are among the highest nation-wide. Quick Start provides flexible, hands-on training that is designed to help new, existing and expanding companies begin operations as quickly as possible.

In addition, the peerless Intellectual Capital Partnership Program (ICAPP) connects the intellectual resources of Georgia’s 35 public colleges and universities to the state’s business community.
