Lobster Dealers partner with Department of Corrections to find workers

WINDHAM, MAINE — Lobster dealers are partnering with the Maine Department of Corrections in a new program that's intended to help them find the workers they need.

Annie Tselikis, executive director of Maine Lobster Dealers' Association, said the new initiative is intended to address the same story she hears all the time from lobster companies ranging from Kittery to Lubec: They're struggling to find the workers they need to process and ship live lobsters around the world.
