One issue our reporting team has been carefully tracking for the last few months is the industry push to better attract and retain manufacturing talent. Companies are working to better understand and adapt to what potential talent wants, whether it's a clearer career path for Gen Z workers, or more flexible hours for parents. For our first newsletter of 2023, we're highlighting some of our recent labor coverage. We're also debuting the newest installment in our "For Hire" series, this time exploring how companies are working to recruit and retain women in manufacturing.
