Section 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.
