How to Support Your Workers -
Even in an Economic Downturn
Come learn what three exemplary Bay Area companies are doing to support their employees and maintain their strong cultures during the economic downturn, and gain a greater understanding of current trends in our labor market. Our panelists will talk about specific actions they are taking as leaders to communicate with their staff and provide low-cost supports that make a difference to their workforce and workplace.
Moderated by Sylvia Allegretto, a labor economist at the Institute for Research on Labor and Employment, UC Berkeley, our panelists will be representing light manufacturing, hospitality and professional services, as well as both large and small workplaces, and will be sharing their common and unique approaches:
Business Innovation Conversations bring business owners, authors and other thought leaders together to identify and promote business employment practices that help employees build their careers, assets and self-sufficiency, while boosting business competitiveness and success.

SF Works builds the careers and self-sufficiency of entry-tier and low-income workers, aligning business, civic and community motives to create new workforce policies and practices. Our programs respond to both employees' aspirations for self-sufficiency and advancement, and to employers' demands for return on investment. Our goal is to create a vibrant, motivated and self-sufficient workforce in San Francisco.
