Ward 1 - Good Jobs

Will you work with us to develop a job strategy that limits contracting out of entry-level positions at the city and provides employment opportunities for youth and equity-seeking groups so that they can earn a fair living wage, develop workplace skills and gain job experience? 

Answer

Ali Oonwala

Yes

More organization of jobs that give back to the community, less outsourcing jobs.

Yes

The city plays a role in doing a deeper dive into the balance. Not neccesarily limiting all contracting out but seeing where there may be pathways for youth to advance in their careers. Youth need more supports and encouragement to create their own jobs and become entrepreneurs leveraging technology and AI.
