What is it? In a collaborative effort to address imminent workforce shortages, Envision Greater Fond du Lac, Fond du Lac County, and Fond du Lac County Capital Resources (FCCR) have come together to develop a county-wide workforce attraction and retention tool for employers to utilize across Fond du Lac County, known as the Worker Relocation Incentive Program. Inspired by other communities across the country, this is the first program of its kind within the State of Wisconsin! 

How does it work? County employers decide if they’d like to offer a relocation incentive to a prospective worker to live and work in Fond du Lac County.  Incentives range up to $15,000 and are not restricted to any salary range or occupation level. After 12 months of concurrent residency and employment, the employer qualifies for a 50% incentive reimbursement* from Fond du Lac County Capital Resources (FCCR).
