Parkland County's Labour Force

Parkland County has access to a diverse workforce, predominantly pulled from Edmonton and surrounding areas. With key road infrastructure in place between Acheson and Edmonton, the employee commute is seamless.

Edmonton’s diversified labour pool provides needed worker skills to a range of industries. Drawing from the regional population base of nearly 1.2 million, almost 62% of the local labor force has post-secondary education or apprenticeship training and another 23% are high school graduates.
