The Home Builders and Remodelers Association of New Hampshire has entered into a partnership with the Job Creators Network, which it says is aimed at engaging and educating the 60,000 people who work in the state’s building industry.
HBRANH will participate in JCN’s Employer to Employee Communication Program, which provides employers with tools, materials and guidance in communicating what it calls “free enterprise values” to their employees on such issues as taxes, regulation, health care, debt and deficit, energy and education.
“Our industry needs workers and jobs,” said Dick Benson, HBRANH president. “But some of the government policies we are seeing come out of Washington are forcing our members to make very tough decisions. Our members believe it is only right to make sure their employees understand how these policies affect their jobs and paychecks.”
