 The most pressing and significant concerns facing communities today is lack of economic opportunity and unemployment. If a person lacks the skills to perform their duties on the job, they will be disqualified and potentially left without a job. Instead of the company working with the employee to get him or her more training, the company instead will let them go. If a supervisor or manager sees that an employee is struggling with their performance, it should be something in place to help the employee succeed. Another concern the community faces is when a company has to cut costs due to the economy, and the company is forced to offer employees an incentive to take early retirement or lay them off. Back in 2008 to 2010, it was a tough time for many communities due to the economic recession that happened. At that time it was tough for many Americans because the economy was going down many people lost their jobs and homes.  As of today, things have gotten a lot better, but there is still room for the economy to grow stronger and with me saying this the unemployment rate has to get better.
