After attending the Local 776 sponsored Job Fair for Yellow Corp. members the PA Dept. of Labor and Industry Rapid Response Team were at the Union Hall on August 17th to offer an informational session exclusively for Yellow Corp. Members.

The Rapid Response Team had individuals on hand to provide information regarding transition assistance programs and services such as Job Search, Workshops, Unemployment Compensation, Community Resources, Education, and Training Programs. Also present were Melissa Stevenson from PA Unemployment Compensation Benefits, and Judy Wechter, Outreach Coordinator for Pennie (The PA Healthcare Marketplace) to answer any questions.

As Local 776 Members formerly employed by Yellow Corp. transition into new careers in the workplace Local 776 will continue to offer any assistance possible to help them resume some normalcy in their lives. For additional information from the PA Dept. of Labor and Industry follow the link below:
