"Training Your Workforce" shows how to improve the skills of your workforce and find help for current employees. "Restructuring Your Workforce" details strategies and programs available to employers whose businesses are experiencing downsizing, restructuring, or closings. Information on preventing and managing a layoff or closing is provided.
