The presence of an available, well-trained workforce is a must in any business’s relocation or expansion plan.  The Clinton labor shed, the area from which Clinton area businesses draw employees, has just such a workforce.  In addition to the unemployed, the Clinton labor shed contains many under-employed, those who aspire to more challenging careers or who are travelling long distances to find appropriate work.  In fact, 48% of Laurens County’s workers commute over 10 miles for work.  Please see the following links for more labor force information.
