Louisiana’s economy is growing. Now, we have to make sure Louisiana’s workforce is ready.

Louisiana Works Deputy Secretary Osmar Padilla recently joined 107.3 FM to discuss what more than $250 billion in announced investments since January 2024 means for Louisiana workers and employers.

The conversation covered:
• Preparing workers for thousands of new career opportunities
• Creating pathways for experienced workers, career changers and the next generation
• Louisiana’s progress in labor force participation, with 33,000 more people joining the workforce over the past year
• Making it easier for employers to connect with Louisiana’s workforce system

As Padilla put it: “The announcements are great, but we’ve got to deliver now.”

Louisiana Works is focused on doing just that—connecting Louisiana workers to the opportunities being created across our state.
