Displaced workers

Sometimes, big changes happen in the places where people work. People might get new machines to help them do their job faster or better. Or maybe the company decides to move their work to a different place. When this happens, some people might not be able to keep working at their job anymore. This is called being a "displaced worker".

Being a displaced worker can be very scary because it means you might have to find a new job or learn how to do something new. Sometimes, companies will offer help to their displaced workers to find a new job or learn a new skill. Other times, the government might have special programs to help displaced workers too.

It's important to remember that being a displaced worker doesn't mean you did anything wrong or that you weren't good at your job. Sometimes things just happen that are out of your control. The important thing is to try your best to find a new job or learn a new skill, and not give up.
