Have you heard of “quiet quitting?” Have you also heard companies say they are struggling to hire any new staff, let alone qualified employees? These two questions meet at the convergence of job quality and equity. Businesses and organizations that promote and engage in quality jobs and equitable communities can conquer this challenge in a way that provides employers with a skilled, engaged workforce and Coloradans with meaningful employment.
