BUSINESS SKILLS CONNECT

Developing and Supporting employment partnerships
between Toowoomba businesses and work-ready migrants.

CatholicCare has partnered with the Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce to develop the Business Skills Connect project. This project is aimed at establishing employment relationships with local businesses and to uncover job vacancies for migrant job seekers. In addition, this project will identify and explore the major benefits or challenges associated with local employment of migrants and refugees and develop strategies to build local skills supply chain.

The main insight from employers currently employing migrants or refugees is that migrant employees are loyal, hard-working, helpful, caring, tolerant, mature, resilient and have a solid work ethic and use their initiative.
