Highlights of Analysis of Secondary Employment and Labor Force Data for the SEWIB Region Presentation to the Brockton WIB by Mt. Auburn Associates December 5, 2002

Purpose of the Analysis Identify common or complementary employment and industry characteristics Identify common or complementary workforce characteristics Identify spatial relationships of industry and workforce across WIA boundaries that may facilitate joint activity Use secondary analysis to sharpen focus of primary research

Selected Findings 1. The distinct employment patterns among the five Southeast Region WIAs have blurred as employment in the region has dispersed from mature urban centers to suburban communities. 2. Regional commuting patterns indicate high levels of labor force mobility. It is likely that there is a significant level of cross-border commuting between the five WIAs. 3. Low use of public transportation in all five WIAs may indicate mobility problems for workers who don’t have their own vehicles. Usage is particularly low in areas without commuter rail.

Selected Findings 4. There is evidence of increasing employment concentrations and net worker inflows along major highway corridors. These corridors typically cut across WIA boundaries. 5. The economies of all five WIAs are increasingly dominated by the service and trade sectors. The industry structures of the five WIAs are generally similar at the primary industry level, with the exception of manufacturing and financial services.

Selected Findings 6. Service and manufacturing industry employment remain concentrated in a small number of employment centers, although manufacturing employment is becoming more dispersed. Trade employment is more evenly distributed 7. Special needs populations (e.g., low education, minorities, new immigrants, poor English speakers, female-headed households with children) tend to cluster in sets of adjacent and nearby communities, and these clusters often cut across WIA boundaries.

Next Steps 1. Regional meeting introduce project to key constituents solicit initial input on workforce development issues of regional concern 2. Primary research Identify cross-border industry clusters with common workforce needs Identify cross-cutting training and related service needs among regional labor force Inventory regional workforce development resources and institutional capacity to identify gaps that can be addressed through cross-border collaboration

Next Steps 3. Recommendations Collaborative Programs/Projects Shared Organizational Capacity Joint Advocacy Efforts
