New Report Highlights What Machine Builders Can Do to Mitigate the Skilled Labor Shortage in the Manufacturing Sector
Eaton announced a new report by S&P Global Market Intelligence 451 Research, commissioned by Eaton, that examines the extent of the skills gap and its implications for the machine building industry, as well as suggesting some mitigation measures. Machine builders in North America and Europe face unprecedented challenges as demand for increasingly complex industrial machinery rises, while the pool of skilled workers with expertise in machine-building continues to shrink. The report – called ‘The impact of the labor shortage on machine builders’ – is based on survey data obtained from 300 machine building experts in Canada, USA, Germany, Italy and The Netherlands.
