In the final session of the series, we’ll explore how operators can leverage public-private resources and partnerships to build their own future-ready teams and drive workforce impact in their communities. Hear from a restaurant operator who is putting Foundation workforce programs to work for their business and understand from policy stakeholders why a public-private partnership is essential for initiatives like apprenticeship to succeed in building a long-term talent pipeline. Finally, operators will gain insight into other resources, including available tax incentives through tip and overtime exemptions, child care credits, and paid leave support to strengthen their teams for the long haul.

In honor of Workforce Development Month, the Foundation is presenting this free, four-part webinar series designed to address the evolving needs of the restaurant and hospitality workforce. Each session brings together industry leaders, workforce experts, and changemakers to explore strategies that empower workers, close skills gaps, and drive long-term career success. Whether you’re an operator, workforce partner, educator, or jobseeker advocate, these sessions will equip you with strategies to attract, develop, and retain the next generation of industry talent.
