WEF Member Advisory:
‘Work for Water’ Campaign & Call to Action
April 13, 2010 - The Water Environment Federation (WEF) and the American
Water Works Association (AWWA) have joined forces on a public outreach
campaign that will enhance the image of water careers and encourage students
and job seekers to “Work for Water.”
The campaign will promote water careers as both professionally fulfilling
and aligned to the greatest public health and environmental cause of our
day. The outreach will also address one of the water community’s top
concerns in the coming decade—the expected retirement of 30% of the water
workforce and the need to recruit new talent to the field.
One of the primary resources of the Work for Water effort is a Web-based
clearinghouse that provides a gateway to the many recruiting and retention
resources already available throughout North America. The campaign will
ultimately include a suite of outreach resources for promoting water careers
to high school and vocational school students, college students, second
career and retired military job seekers, and others.
The campaign’s Web site —www.WorkforWater.org—will
officially launch in May 2010. It will highlight efforts such as
H2Opportunity!, created by the Georgia Association of Water Professionals,
and BAYWORK in California. It will also include tools such as the Water
Sector Competency Model, that was jointly released by WEF, AWWA, the U.S.
Department of Labor and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency last November.
The competency model defines the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities
for prospective water professionals and encourages careers in the water
sector.
Call to Action
WEF and AWWA are asking members to assist with the development of the
clearinghouse by submitting appropriate resources and materials. Please
contact Linda Kelly, WEF’s Managing Director of Communications, by email (LKelly@wef.org)
or by phone at 703-684-2448.
