The Manufacturing Gap

The recently released 2024 Deloitte and MI Talent Study revealed a significant gap between the American manufacturing sector’s project growth capacity and the available workforce. Not only is the industry broadly dealing with a skills gap, but there simply aren’t enough applicants for the job creation under way.?

That thesis is underscored throughout the report via three prevailing trends:?

• Increased Need for Workers: As the industry grows, there is a demand for a wide range of workers, from entry-level associates to skilled production workers and engineers.
• Changing Skill Requirements: Manufacturing now requires a mix of technical manufacturing skills, digital skills, and soft skills.
• Shortage of Applicants: There aren't enough candidates applying for both skilled and unskilled positions, making it essential for manufacturers to retain their current employees.
