In case you haven’t heard, manufacturing in the U.S. is making a comeback.
Despite the old and outdated notion that most American manufacturing moved overseas, manufacturing has actually been growing steadily and now supports an estimated 17.4 million jobs in the United States —about one in six private-sector jobs, according to the latest figures from the National Association of Manufacturers.
More to the point, more than 12 million Americans, or 9 percent of the workforce, are employed directly in manufacturing.
Yes, manufacturing is a growing and critical part of our economy, and that’s one of the reasons why TLNT is putting on the first-ever HR in Manufacturing Forum Nov. 4-5 in Fort Worth, Texas.
If you are an HR pro, talent manager, or executive working in manufacturing, this — finally — is a conference aimed specifically at you. And at the HR in Manufacturing Forum, you’ll learn from experts and peers how to FIND, DEVELOP and KEEP talent in today’s competitive market.
