The Labour Market Group

The Labour Market Group (LMG) is one of 26 workforce planning boards across Ontario funded by the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development (MAESD). Servicing Nipissing and Parry Sound Districts, we engage various community stakeholders in a consultative and inclusive local labour market planning process. Annually, the Board engages the communities of Nipissing and Parry Sound in consultative process that results in a Local Labour Market Plan (LLMP). The plan includes workforce development strategies that are implemented through community partnerships. The partnerships address the workforce development challenges and issues identified during the planning process. The LLMP report consolidates a considerable volume of information so that community planning can be undertaken with the full knowledge of the most recent workforce trends in the catchment area. Thus the LLMP report serves as a strategic tool for the purpose of building community partnerships. The Board, its staff and community stakeholders employ the LLMP report as a key source of labour market information and a long term community action plan for labour force development. The Labour Market Group area encompasses the City of North Bay, as well as several smaller, diverse towns and villages including: Parry Sound, Burk's Falls, Sundridge, South River, Callander, Mattawa, Powassan, West Nipissing and Temagami.
