The EmployerOne Survey is an annual survey conducted within the Sarnia Lambton community to gather information directly from local employers regarding their workforce needs and hiring trends. The report generated from this survey provides job seekers and employers with valuable insights into the local job market and recruitment methods for future and career planning.
The survey aims to address several challenges such as recruitment, retention, and hard-to-fill positions. It also focuses on the challenges faced by small businesses and sole proprietors. By collecting data
from local employers, the survey helps to identify any gaps in the job market and provides an opportunity for stakeholders to work together to address them.
This year, the survey received responses from 323 local businesses representing various sectors of the
economy. Notably, there was increased participation from industries such as Educational Services,
Professional, scientific, and technical services, Retail, and Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation,
