KANSASWORKS Works for Kansans
24 Jan 2020
KANSASWORKS, the workforce services division of the Kansas Department of Commerce, was created to serve the needs of job seekers and businesses across our state by helping prospective employees connect with employers. Hundreds of thousands of Kansas residents—140,000 in 2019 alone—have received employment and reemployment assistance from KANSASWORKS over the years.
I think we can all agree that developing and retaining a strong pipeline of talent is key to the health and sustainability of our economy. It goes without saying that we want quality jobs for Kansans; we want the men and women of our state to have reliable employment that allows them to provide for their families and live comfortably.
