IowaWORKS office in Waukon among several locations to close in June

Several IowaWORKS office changes will be occurring in the coming weeks, including the closure of Expansion Offices in Clarion, Humboldt, Manchester, Mt. Pleasant, New Hampton, Oelwein, Pocahontas, Waukon and West Union; the relocation and adjustment of the hours of operation of the Satellite Offices in Fort Madison and Webster City; and new hours of operation at the Expansion Office in Keokuk.

“These shifts aim to better align our IowaWORKS resources with needs and office traffic patterns across the state,” said Beth Townsend, Director of Iowa Workforce Development. “They also expand on local partnerships allowing us to reduce costs and increase access to the resources job seekers and employers need in the areas where services are most in demand.”

The Waukon Expansion Office located at the Northeast Iowa Community College Waukon Center will close as of June 25. The office was open and available to the public Mondays from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Also in northeast Iowa, the West Union Expansion Office located at the West Union Chamber of Commerce will close as of June 28. That office was open Thursdays from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
