🌟 Attracting the Next Generation to Steelwork & Fabrication
❌ I read 20% of manufacturing workers to retire by 2026❌
It's no secret steelwork the mining, metals, and steelwork sectors face a talent shortage, especially among younger workers. But how do we change that?
Marketing the industry to the younger generation in places where they are looking and keeping up-to-date socials is a great first step. It’s not the only solution but a milestone in showing how exciting and rewarding these careers can be.
From cutting-edge technology to sustainability efforts, there’s so much innovation happening that we need to highlight:
🔧 Innovation – From advanced machinery to automation, technology is transforming how things are built.
🌍 Sustainability – The industry is making strides in eco-friendly practices that help shape a greener future.
📲 Digital Skills – With 3D modelling, augmented reality, and AI integration, the industry offers cutting-edge tech opportunities.
🏗 Impactful Projects – Showcasing large-scale, world-changing projects can attract young people looking to make a difference.
🚀 Career Growth – The industry offers clear paths for progression, competitive salaries, and personal development.
It would be awesome to show the next generation what we already know—the steelwork and fabrication sectors are full of opportunities for growth, creativity, and real-world impact.
I would be interested in understanding what is stopping companies from doing this.
