ERN USA

ERN USA Employer Resource Network® Is Your Community Ready? Are they a priority? ERN-USA partners with Leading Organizations who assist in new ERN start-ups.

Consider these questions…

*What would the barriers be to establishing an ERN in your community?

*What are the assets your community would leverage to establish an ERN?

*Would the ERN USA Model for Employer Resource Networks be something your community would support?

*Where do these issues “rate” in your community? Do they current receive funding and support?

*Are they covered in local media a

nd discussed in political arenas?

*To what degree are personal and family challenges contributing to job turnover among low-wage and entry-level workers in your community? These new ERNs become licensed members of ERN-USA with benefits options that include:

*customizable SalesForce platform for ERN communication and data input with metrics and reporting capabilities that will demonstrate the impact you are achieving in employee involvement, as well as return on investment for employers

*marketing and outreach materials such as business cards, posters, flyers, newsletters, brochures and website

*participation in the national ERN USA Peer Learning Community
