Enter the New Labor Landscape: Turning crisis into opportunity

Before the Covid-19 pandemic, labor availability was already one of the top challenges in warehousing and distribution operations. Even as automation made inroads to complement human workers and reduce perennially high turnover, the need for labor remained persistent.

In a matter of weeks this spring, record low unemployment numbers were flipped upside down, presenting a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build a new workforce by promoting essential, stable and well-paid careers in materials handling, logistics and the supply chain. In this session, our keynote speaker will explore strategies to attract and retain labor and talent in an unprecedented job market.

Attendees will come away with practical strategies to:

  • Quickly and confidently reach out to prospective warehouse/DC employees.
  • Build sustainable pipelines to attract and retain employees in the long term.
  • Challenge conventional thinking on workforce management.
  • Leverage human resources to optimize productivity and operations efficiency
