A new employer survey projects 1,400 job openings in Erie County when combining current positions, available spots in the next 12 months, and the number of people businesses expect to lose to retirement through 2016.
But those results show only a fraction of the actual job-openings picture, the survey's coordinators recently said.
The Erie Regional Chamber and Growth Partnership in early November sent an electronic survey to more than a thousand local employers in an attempt to examine the type and number of job openings in the area.
About 120 employers have responded.
"For a first-time electronic survey, 10 percent response is pretty good," said Melanie Johnson, business retention manager for the Regional Chamber. "That being said, we'd get a better picture of the actual numbers if more employers took the time to complete this."
