AN ACT CONCERNING WORKFORCE SHORTAGES, WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT AND WORKFORCE TRAINING.
HB 5321 requires Connecticut's Commissioner of Economic and Community Development to study workforce shortages, workforce development programs, and training availability across the state. The study must analyze how these factors impact commercial activity and submit a report to the General Assembly's Commerce committee by January 1, 2027. This bill does not create new programs or policies - it solely mandates a fact-finding study to inform future decisions.
