Are you struggling to attract talent and retain your workforce?

Is your company having trouble meeting demand due to a lack of available talent?

We hear your frustration and concerns. Join us for a four-part virtual series on HR best practices to help your organization attract and retain skilled employees. Led by Denise Ball, a Workforce Development Specialist for Tooling U-SME, this series will cover the current state of attraction and retention for manufacturing companies, best practice on using branding to attract talent, structured onboarding, on-the-job training, and more.

Each virtual session is under 45 minutes. Companies who attend all four sessions will have an opportunity to have a one-on-one discussion with an IMEC workforce Development expert on how to implement these strategies, as well as receive a complimentary 2-week trial of Tooling-U courses through the IMEC Career Pathways program.

Session 3: Generations & Culture

With millions of manufacturing workers expected to retire in the next few years, the Z generation and Millennials will need to fill these positions. As these workers have been entering the hiring pool, employers are discovering that the next generation of workers learns quite differently than they did. Manufacturers need to leverage their key characteristics, implement new learning and development programs that align to the way these generations learn and rethink policies that will not only help attract but also retain these generations.
