Employers at the WorkForce job fair Wednesday at the Blaisdell Center will gather job seekers’ data using Recpass, a software tool that uses optical scanning technology to reduce paperwork and the time it takes to re­cord information about applicants. About 180 employers have signed up for the event.

The event will be held from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is $3 general and $1 for students with school ID, seniors 55 and older, and military with ID.

Alan Wong’s Restaurant, Kua­loa Ranch, Hawaii Pacific Health and BAE Systems will be among the companies looking to fill vacancies.

Job seekers can go to www.recpass.com/workforce-job-fair and upload their resumes. At the fair they can print a badge with a code that employers can scan to obtain the job seeker’s resume and contact information.
