Top workforce management challenges

Hiring the right workforce

Manufacturing operations have evolved drastically over the years. With
fewer schools offering shop classes and more students shying away from
manufacturing jobs, manufacturing companies are facing major challenges
in hiring the right talent. Furthermore, the modern workforce also lacks
the skill and expertise that is required to handle manufacturing
operations.

Consistent training and education

The rapid changes in the manufacturing sector can even prove challenging
for well-trained employees to keep pace with these disruptions.
Providing consistent training and development to employees relating to
the new trends in the market is one of the key workforce management
challenges faced by manufacturers.

Overcoming stigmas related to manufacturing jobs

Manufacturing jobs have fallen out of style throughout the U.S. This is
primarily because manufacturing is bogged down by outdated stigmas such
as being a dark, dangerous, and an ominous industry. Moreover, teachers
and parents alike are steering away children from pursuing a career in
manufacturing.

Cybersecurity threats

The changing technology also comes with challenges such as cyber
security threats. As the number of connected devices used by companies
in the manufacturing sector increases, there is a consequent increase in
the external and internal vulnerabilities faced. Despite this,
manufacturers lag behind when it comes to ensuring the safety of their
data.
