Changes at the Upper Rio Grande Workforce Board
The head person in charge at the Upper Rio Grande Workforce Solutions Centers was fired earlier this week according to sources in the company. A private contractor, Ross, manages the workforce centers and their director was Rosa Flores.
Flores was previously a member of the Board Staff and very closely aligned with the CEO Lorenzo Reyes. A couple of days ago there was a notice in the El Paso Times about the Board seeking a new contractor.
The Upper Rio Grande Workforce Solutions Board is a quazi-governmental agency that manages workforce development activities for west Texas. Flores was a member of the staff, not a member of the actual board.
Staff members, who spoke only on the condition of anonymity, indicate that Flores may end up on the actual board in the near future, which as their rules read, doesn’t appear to be within the rules.
Word from the staff is that she was fired due to complaints of her treatment of employees and that the corporate office sent in an attorney to investigate the complaints.
