Workforce Survey
Almost 300 hundred people attended the Informational Open House, and just under 200 of those attendees participated in the survey. However, it was noted that mostly employers were presented and the workforce was not.
As a goal of the planning process, we wanted to ensure everyone's voice was heard and that their opinions were included in the Comprehensive Plan. As a result, a survey was crafted with specific questions for Branson's workforce. That survey was then distributed through the contacts we have compiled through the process thus far. Our contacts represent businesses in the entertainment industry, the hospitality industry, and all other facets of Branson's vibrant community. We also asked those employed by the school district, the City and local healthcare facilities to provide feedback.
The survey generated 889 responses and provided information on why our employees live where they do, what their financial issues are and what the City should not overlook in the future. In some instances the responses were contradictory to what the team has heard to-date. For these reasons, it is critical that we get broad perspectives on all issues that affect Branson's future.
