Northeast Missouri Community Action Agency hosted a Community Forum focusing
on Employment on March 26, 2008 at the Adair County Annex Building in
Kirksville, MO. Local employers from area communities were invited to
attend. Roundtable discussions were held based on an Employment Survey
distributed, collected and assessed by Deane Valkenaar from NMCAA. The
employment survey included employment issues such as trends in employee
absenteeism, employee retention, and patterns in the current employable
workforce.
