Current Issues
 Phase II of our National Occupational Standards (NOS) Project has begun. Phase
I resulted in the development of 15 NOS, and another five equipment-specific NOS
resulted from our Material Handler Skills Upgrading Project. We are looking for
input on the next 13 priority NOS targeted for the remaining occupations in our
sector. As stakeholders, are you using these NOS? What can we do to help?
 Collaboration and Efficiency – One of the primary reasons for the establishment of
the Council was the need to provide a forum for stakeholders to address issues that
affect our sector, from an HR, labour market, and knowledge, skills and competency
perspective. We want to engage more of our stakeholders in this process. Find out
how your members can be part of this joint effort.
 HR Trends Analysis – The Alliance of Sector Councils (TASC) has been tracking
HR trends (hiring, layoffs, education and training investments) by sector, including
supply chain. See how we compare with other sectors.
What We Need From You
 Our Recruitment & Retention Project is up and running. Focus groups are
planned for Calgary (March 11), Montreal (March 18) and Halifax (March 19). We
need your help to ensure we get input from our stakeholders. Invite your members,
local chapters to attend. Targets include HR professionals, career seekers including
youth, newcomers, Aboriginals, individuals in transition, older adults, and other
under-represented groups including women and the disabled.
 Check out the new look of our website! We are seeking feedback on the look and
content. Would you be interested in a webinar to detail the features of the site?
