Huron County's CAO brought county councillors up to date on the county's Attrition Management Plan at their last council meeting.
Meighan Wark said the Attrition Plan was introduced late last year and the goal was to make sure that all of the open positions with the county continue to be relevant.
"The idea is if someone is moving on to further their career at another organization or is a retirement and as a result, there will be a vacancy in the corporation, we're evaluating the position to ensure that the position continues to be exactly what is needed."
Wark said there is a limit to what the county can handle in terms of new positions, particularly given the pressure on the county to take on more and more levels of responsibility and more programs, both from the province and the taxpayers of Huron County.
Wark also said demand is always changing, especially because of the ongoing pandemic. She added that it's important to continually evaluate what they do in terms of what's required.
