Douglas Hale

Douglas Hale found himself unemployed again after being laid off from Simoni Systems in Saginaw. He had worked there as an installation technician. "I needed to find a job that was more stable so I could provide for my family," said Douglas.

He is currently utilizing the On-the-Job training (OJT) program through the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). Douglas began his new position as a decker at Avalon & Tahoe on January 14, 2013. Avalon & Tahoe benefits from a 50% wage reimbursement to help offset the cost of a new hire. "The OJT opportunity at Michigan Works! is a win-win for the employers and those seeking work," said Sandi Sheldon, HR Manager at Avalon & Tahoe.

"In my new job as a decker, I install the boat deck from wood all the way to the carpet or vinyl. This new job means a great deal to me and my wife. In today’s economy, any full time permanent job is a blessing and especially with a growing company," Douglas added. Sandi Sheldon said, "We need more employees like Doug."

Douglas stated, "My advice to a person who just got laid off would be to stay persistent and believe in yourself, regardless of your age or education. Hard work and reliability goes a long ways in today’s work force."
