WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT

Continuous improvement training conducted at Milestone's certified training facilityMilestone is dedicated to developing both its field and management workforce. Milestone participates in a variety of intern and apprenticeship programs throughout Indiana. By participating in these programs, we ensure that we have a workforce that is trained to meet the needs of tomorrow as well as today.

First and foremost is the education of safety at the jobsite. Every employee goes through new hire orientation before stepping foot on the site. Once they are dressed in appropriate attire with high visibility clothing and personal protective equipment, they report to work and are issued a “green” hard hat. This lets fellow workers know to help watch over and educate the new employee.

Milestone invests in education at a variety of levels throughout the community. These levels include:

  • Career Awareness/Job Fairs
  • Classroom participation
  • Indiana Workforce Development and Indiana Plan in recruitment of Trainees and Apprentices
  • Diversity Programs

Helmets to Hardhats
A Congressionally funded program, Helmets to Hardhats is the fastest, easiest way for transitioning military, Reservists, and Guardsmen to find a rewarding career in the construction industry. With a large number of skilled laborers reaching retirement age and leaving the workforce, particularly in the building and construction trades, this program will help to fill the shortfall of workers in those trades. Milestone, with the support of local unions, is in active pursuit of these people and in full support of this program.

Participating in these and other programs helps us achieve our recruiting and educational goals.
