Overview
Airports have long been places where people can move from entry-level, low-wage jobs to higher-paying, long-term careers simply by hard work and perseverance. That upward mobility has become more difficult with recent changes across the airline industry. Companies are outsourcing many job functions to smaller, specialty firms that may offer fewer opportunities for promotion.
Without additional education and a good strategy for career advancement, a hard working employee can find it difficult to advance into jobs that better pay the family bills. Port Jobs is pioneering development of workplace-based college courses to help low-wage workers build skills to move from entry-level jobs into successful careers. We are reconnecting the rungs of the career ladder for airport employees.
