CHPRC CO-SPONSORING JOB FAIR NEAR HANFORD NEXT MONTH FOR LAID-OFF WORKERS

CH2M Hill Plateau Remediation Co. is set to co-sponsor a jobs fair near Hanford next month to aid workers impacted by a workforce restructuring plan underway find new employment. CHPRC and its subcontractors have developed a workforce restructuring plan to eliminate 350 positions by the end of Fiscal Year 2012, though the contractor has recently announced that it would only seek to cut approximately 200 positions. The jobs fair is scheduled to be held Oct. 11 at WSU Tri-Cities in Richland, Wash. For more information, please go to: http://www.tricity.wsu.edu/careers/careerfair.html
