Automation of work processes
Stephanie Koch reports on how a hotel chain tackled the shortage of skilled workers by automating certain work areas - and how it managed to successfully keep the existing workforce on board.
The shortage of skilled workers is still affecting many areas, from the manufacturing industry to the care and healthcare sectors all the way to service companies. The competition for the highly sought-after workers is also driving up costs. So how can we tackle the shortage of skilled workers?
Automation as a means to combat the shortage of skilled workers
A number of tasks that previously required special expertise can now be automated. One of the challenges here is to integrate the existing employees into the processes in such a way that human expertise and automation complement each other as seamlessly as possible.
A coherent, far-sighted concept and a good communication strategy are the key to success. As experienced transformation professionals, we have supported many such change processes with our employment law expertise. We would also be happy to assist you. Feel free to contact us now.
