Loomis Firm Awarded Employment Training Funding

By Press Release on May 10, 2010

Digital News Report – Senator Sam Aanestad (R-Grass Valley) reports that the California Employment Training Panel has approved a new job training program for a Placer County employer located in Loomis. The $74,880 training program grant for J.L.S. Environmental Services, Inc. will enable the company to update the skills of its 60 employees. In addition, the grant funds will also help the company address the problems of out-of-state competition and remain competitive in the marketplace.

“With the California jobless rate at an all-time high, new job and business creation should be the shared, common goal of the State Legislature,” said Senator Aanestad. “This type of specialized grant funding helps existing businesses to stay competitive in the global marketplace, which can lead to new business opportunities and further job expansion.”

JLS Environmental Services is a full-service restoration contractor specializing in commercial and residential damage caused by water, fire, smoke and mold. The company specializes in emergency response to problems such as controlled demolition, structural dryout, mold remediation, complete reconstruction, water testing and construction defect investigation.

Created in 1982, the California Employment Training Panel (ETP) is a public statewide economic development program to support the overall California economy by ensuring that employers have the trained workers that they need to compete in a global economy. By supporting the training needs of California businesses for skilled workers, the ETP has been an effective tool for retaining and attracting California businesses.

The ETP is the largest state-funded, industry specific training and employment program in the country. The ETP primarily funds retraining efforts for incumbent workers of businesses that are under the threat of out-of-state or out-of-country competition. The effort is a collaborative one, where partnerships are forged between business, labor and government to provide for necessary skills and retraining to workers for businesses to stay competitive.

“This program is directed at small business employers and non-profits in high unemployment areas of the State of California,” said Senator Aanestad. “I’m pleased that J.L.S. Environmental Services is taking part in a true public-private partnership, which is a proven creator of new jobs and new opportunities.”

Since its inception in 1983, the ETP program has provided over $1 billion to train more than 660,000 workers in over 60,000 California companies. The program is funded by the Employment Training Tax paid by California employers, and targets firms threatened by out-of-state and international competition.

“The goal is to keep and retain jobs,” said Senator Aanestad. “Not drive them out of state.”
