Turning the tide on the labor gap
As many of us know, skilled trades labor is essential for life. Our homes, businesses, every road in-between, and the cars we drive need tradespeople.
In the current market, demand for skilled labor is critically high, and supply is low.
“Helping people to pre-skill, upskill and reskill for in-demand roles remains the defining challenge of our time.” - Jonas Prising, ManpowerGroup Chairman and CEO.
