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jobs have fallen out of style throughout the U.S. This is primarily because manufacturing is bogged down by outdated stigmas such as being a dark, dangerous, and an ominous industry.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.
