How a $30 million fair hiring fair can help to solve the fair housing problem
WASHINGTON — A new law in Wyoming is making it easier for businesses to hire fair-housing candidates.
The Fair Employment Fair Housing Act was passed in December and signed into law by Gov.
Matt Mead on Monday.
Businesses and government agencies can now hire fair housing applicants for positions in their organizations, including on the hiring team.
The new law also allows businesses to use the hiring process to get information on fair hiring practices.
As of December, there were over 11,000 applicants for fair housing positions in Wyoming, and about 1,300 were hired, according to the Wyoming Department of Commerce and Economic Development.
The Fair Housing Law was created to improve fair housing protections in the state, but it also applies to federal contractors.
It also helps companies and employees by helping to identify and identify unfair hiring practices that are being used by federal contractors to discriminate against fair housing candidates.
The law also prohibits discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, familial status, veteran status, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity.
Wyoming’s Fair Employment and Housing Office is working with a number of state agencies, including the Wyoming Human Relations Commission, the Wyoming Labor Department, the state Department of Economic Development and the Wyoming Employment Development Agency.
Wyomos Fair Employment Office is the first of its kind in the country.
This legislation is not intended to be a replacement for federal fair hiring laws, Mead said in a statement.
It simply provides a new way for businesses in Wyoming to hire the fair-hiring candidates they need.

Gov.
says ‘fair hiring’ bill was passed to help solve fair housing problems.

Missouri state fair fair: Alyssa Farley gets the job
Missouri Gov.
Jay Nixon says he’s hiring a woman to lead the fair, after the governor called the appointment of an all-male fair board a “mistake” and “unprecedented.”
Nixon made the announcement Friday, saying the fair board will be led by a woman and that he will make all hiring decisions on merit.
The Fair Board will consist of an All-Mens Advisory Committee, an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Committee and a Diversity and Inclusion Committee, according to the announcement.
Nixon said he was seeking the appointment after “deeply concerned” about the recent decision by the Missouri Senate to remove the state fair from its schedule.
Numerous state and local fair board members have been calling for the fair to be moved to a more suitable venue, but the state Senate refused to consider a proposal that would have moved the fair from the state Capitol grounds to the Missouri Botanical Garden.
The Senate voted unanimously to remove all of the state’s state fairs from its calendar.
The state fair board was formed in 2013 to manage the fairs, and the board includes representatives from the Fair Housing Commission, Fair and Community Development Commission and the Missouri Attorney General’s Office.
Nancy Burdick, who is the chief executive officer of the Missouri Association of Broadcasters, said the board is “determined to make sure that our state fair remains the best, most diverse, most innovative and fun fair that Missouri has to offer.”
Burdick praised Nixon for appointing her to lead and said she is “a true progressive who understands that our fair is a great place to celebrate diversity.”
“I know that our Fair Board is committed to bringing all fairs to a greater level of quality and quality of life, and to doing so in a way that reflects Missouri’s values and the best interests of our fair visitors and employees,” Burdik said.

Washington’s $100 million job-hunting machine is finally at work
The Washington state fair is the perfect place to launch a career, but not so much for the job-searching reasons.
The state fairs job-shopping machine has been humming for nearly a year now, and it’s working on a new job.
The Fair Labor Association says it’s hiring the second-largest group of workers in the state, about 6,500 people.
They include teachers, police officers, and emergency room attendants.
The fair, located in the nation’s capital, is not only a job creator, it’s also a great place to raise a family.
But, because it’s an all-volunteer event, it is only open to workers in their 20s and 30s.
And even those are limited to working as part of a team, so if you are a mom or dad and you’re not sure what your role is, you can ask for help.
Here are a few tips to get you started.
Read the job descriptions carefully and make sure you have a high school diploma.
It’s good to know what your pay will be and what you’re getting paid.
You can also check out the jobs page to see if there are openings for entry-level jobs.
If there aren’t any, you might want to call ahead to find out if you qualify.
Also, if you have experience in other jobs, talk to your recruiter about what you can do to increase your earning potential.
The Fair Labor Advisory Council says it has created a list of tips for people who are looking for jobs.
For example, they recommend you work on a project with a partner.
This is especially helpful if you’re a mom who has a new child, or if you like to help others with their careers.
“There’s no such thing as a job that you don’t like doing,” said Lisa Sorenson, the association’s president.
“If you can see yourself as someone who can do some of the other things that you can and be useful in that process, that’s a great way to start a career.”
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer at the fair, check out this list of jobs available to help with the job search.
The fairs volunteer coordinator will connect you with the best positions.
