Defining “employer of choice”
A firm that succeeds in increasing itsprofitablility and/or market share througheffective human resource managementpractices.
Notice two things implied in this definition
What is in it for employers?
It is the employees who are makingimportant choices

What’s in it for the Texas Workforce Network?
Obligation to employers under WIA
Building relationships with employersbased on an understanding of their“bottom-line” requirements
Becoming the provider of choice
Serving the needs of the job-seekers
