Workforce

Within a 60-mile radius of Bay County, there is a population of approximately one-half million and a civilian labor shed of more than one-quarter million with a mean age that is the state’s youngest. This energetic, motivated and productive workforce is capable of meeting any employer’s needs.

 

The Bay area has a strong military influence which has contributed to a large pool of qualified, experienced individuals who, when separating from the military, opt to make Bay County their home. This group combined with the number of graduates from local colleges and universities contributes to the growing labor pool. On an annual basis there are nearly 500 separating military personal from Tyndall Air Force Base, many looking to start their second career. 

 

To connect your business to the right talent, Bay County offers an array of workforce services. Quality education and job training programs offered through the area’s Hire-Train-Recruit initiative enable Bay County companies to grow and expand.
