YAKIMA – After residing for three months in temporary quarters on 3rd Street in Yakima, the local WorkSource career center and its employees will move on Sept. 1 to a new permanent location at 1205 Ahtanum Ridge Drive in Union Gap.

“The new center isn’t your typical government office,” said Sondra Pieti, WorkSource center administrator. “Its design is purposeful to center on the customer needs, with an open concept and the latest technology to help job seekers and employers connect.”

The temporary office at 120 S. 3rd St. closes on Aug. 25 at noon.  The new center will be served by Union Gap Transit and is located across from the Yakima Health District. 

Phone numbers for the center will remain the same. Job seekers can call 509-574-0105. Employers can reach a business representative by dialing 509-574-0163. The mailing address will be P.O. Box 9995, Yakima, WA 98909.

WorkSource is a partnership of non-profit organizations, government agencies, and community and technical colleges that offers employment and training services to job seekers and businesses.

Individuals who have been laid off from a job, are rethinking their career or are just starting out can get help searching for work, assessing and building skills, exploring careers and training opportunities, and connecting with employers that are hiring.

Services for business include: candidate recruiting through WorkSourceWA.com, job fairs and hiring events, training and skills acquisition for existing workers, and labor market data.

The new center also offers free use of computers, Internet and Wi-Fi access, copiers, phones and paper for employment-related activities.
