FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LABOR DEPARTMENT'S CEDARTOWN OFFICE EXPANDS ITS HOURS OF OPERATION TO BETTER SERVE EMPLOYERS AND JOB SEEKERS
ATLANTA -- State Labor Commissioner Michael Thurmond said today that the Georgia Department of Labor's Cedartown office has expanded its hours of operation to better serve employers and job seekers alike. The office serves the residents of Haralson and Polk counties.
The office at 1108 North Main St. is now open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays, while the department's traditional office hours of 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. continue on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The new office hours began Tuesday, March 7.
"We're able to expand our office hours without additional staff, overtime, or employee workload by using flex-time schedules," said Brenda Sanford, manager of the Cedartown office.
The extended hours will allow customers, especially those whose work schedules correspond with the office's normal operating schedule, more opportunities to use the department services.
"We have to base our decisions about office hours on what's best for our customers," said Francis Mangham, assistant commissioner of field services.
The Cedartown office is a one-stop office that provides resources for youth, seniors, and people receiving public assistance or rehabilitation services. It also provides on-the-job training programs, veterans services, and the federal bonding program.
The office provides a resource center that offers resume preparation, career information, employment workshops, labor market information, job listings, and job referrals.
