Automotive Workers in Transition Program

In reply to the Hon. A.L. McLACHLAN (3 November 2016).

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy): I am advised:

23 information sessions have been held at the Career and Workforce Development Centre at Warradale as at 24 February 2017, with guest speakers from Centrelink, Beyond Auto, the commonwealth government’s jobactive providers, employers and representatives from industries with career opportunities including correctional services, health medical and aged care. Demand is expected to increase as the closure of GM Holden approaches.
