the acton fate press thursday march 31 1966 speaker urges farmers to improve conditions i r ll wl nn ik as we are all aware farm labor ers are becoming more scarce every year there are several rea sons for this trend probably competition from industry where higher wages are paid and bettor working conditions are provided are the main reasons as a result the farmer tends to gather the leftover from industry the aged the crippled and the unskil led how then can a farm com pete with such a low quality labor force at its disposal firstly a farm must try to pro vide the best wages and working conditions it can to compete with other industry the farmer must employ a better share of the more competent workers working con ditions can be improved a good deal on many farms only when these conditions do improve will the quality of the labor improve w s lockhart assistant direc tor of the ontario pulp and paper makers safety association speak ing recently at a meeting of the toronto fruit and vegetable growers association stressed satisfy all his needs on the job will probably be a pretty good worker a mv w i- wll notice that not all persons put the same stress on the sune need some put most emphasis on mon ey while tor other it is svvurils as an employer you must recog nize these needs and be sure you fill them as adequately as pos sible k an emjjloycr you must be abi to communicate with your employees to get across your de sires as well as your appreciation or jour criticisms an employer mirk be sensible at all limes when dealing with his employees so that he gains their respect a mutual understanding between employees and employers should exist at all times the leeling most tanners have today seems to be that labor is not available unless better pay can be provided this is not ab solutely true pay is important but so are manv other things how much help are you going to pet without any social security bob blake president liberals enjoy panel debate
