§ 531. Regularization of employment. One of the purposes of this article is to promote the regularization of employment in enterprises, industries, localities, and the state. The commissioner shall take such steps as are within his means for the reduction and prevention of unemployment and to promote the reemployment of all unemployed workers. To this end the commissioner may employ experts and may carry on and publish the results of any investigations and research which he deems relevant, whether or not directly related to the other purposes and specific provisions of this article. Also to this end, the commissioner shall undertake investigations of technological developments in industry in order to obtain information necessary for evaluating the effects of such developments on the geographical, industrial, and occupational employment patterns of the state. The commissioner shall also undertake investigations of occupational training needs of workers unemployed because of technological developments, the availability of facilities for this purpose, and ways and means for establishing required facilities where this step is needed, and shall co-operate to this end with appropriate education authorities. The commissioner shall bring the findings of such investigations to the attention of education authorities, labor organizations, employers and other appropriate bodies, public and private, in order that educational and training efforts shall be appropriate to the changing occupational needs of industry and shall be channeled in the direction of expanding occupational opportunities for the labor force. The commissioner shall also utilize such findings in connection with his responsibilities for the development and encouragement of, and recruitment for, apprenticeship training activities. The commissioner shall by these and other appropriate means assist labor and management in the development of higher occupational skills commensurate with the changing requirements of industry in the state.
