The Commonwealth Beat with Laura LeBeau - Episode 15 - 12/17/2023

The Commonwealth Beat with Laura LeBeau is a statewide Public Affairs program airing on all Seven Mountains Media Pennsylvania radio stations. On this episode, Laura focuses on the statewide employee shortage across all job sectors with  Pennsylvania Chamber of Business & Industry President, Luke Bernstein. While it's easy to blame the shortages on the Covid pandemic, employee numbers were already trending down before that.  A conversation about the causes and what can be done.  Also, perhaps you've heard of the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission, but do you really know its core mission.  Laura discusses that with Commission Executive Director Chad Dion Lassiter, who was just recently named to City & State's 2023 Impact 75 List.
