Das Finden, das Training und das Halten der qualifizierten Arbeiter ist für Diskussion an schiefergedeckt Materialtransport-Industrie Amerika (MHIA) der Jahreskonferenz Na 2010 festgelegt für 26. bis 29. April (sehen Sie unseren 4. Januar Pfosten). Die Konferenz widmet sich zwei pädagogische Lernabschnitte dem Handhaben der Versorgungsmaterial-Kette Mannschaft:
- Wie Industrie Materialtransport-Training und Ausbildung ändert konzentriert auf die fordernden Fähigkeit Sätze jetzt, die notwendig sind, sogar Eintragungniveau Jobs in den in hohem Grade hoch entwickelten, automatisierten Lagern, in den Auslieferungslagern und in den Erfüllunghäusern durchzuführen.
- Errichten der Mannschaft von morgen konzentriert auf die Herausforderung von multi-Generations-Aworkforces erfolgreich integrieren, wie Baby boomers und das Wissen sie Urlaub die Industrie beherbirgt.
Die Bewegung in Richtung zu automatisierten Versorgungsmaterial-Kette Betrieben und die zunehmende Weltklugheit der Technologie, die sie Geschenke eine beträchtliche Mannschaftherausforderung für Versorgungsmaterial-Kette Manager fährt. Technologie erfordert einen in hohem Grade erfahrenen Versorgungsmaterial-Kette Arbeiter, der es schwierig, verwendbare Mannschaftanwärter unter der traditionellen Lache unerfahrene Arbeit der Industrie zu finden bildet. Das Problem zu verbittern ist der kommende Ruhestand der erfahrenen Baby boomers, die das Rückgrat der Versorgungsmaterial-Kette Industrie für Dekaden gewesen sind. Versorgungsmaterial-Kette Manager sorgen sich, daß es einfach nicht genügende neuen Arbeiter gibt, die das System erben, um die zu ersetzen, die es lassen. Das schlechte ökonomische Klima hat wirklich dieses Teil des Problems ein wenig vermindert. Verlorene Sparungen und geklemmte Etats haben viele Baby boomers gezwungen, um zur Mannschaft zurückzugehen oder Ruhestandrückseite einige mehr Jahre zu drücken.
Während ihre Sachkenntnis willkommen ist, haben die eindeutigen körperlichen Notwendigkeiten einer Alternmannschaft einen anderen Schlüssel in die Versorgungsmaterial-Kette Maschinerie geworfen. Handhabungsgeräte des Inhalierstoffs das entfernt die körperliche Belastung vom Arbeiter könnte der Schlüssel zum Unterbringen der älteren Arbeiter sein. Justierbarkeit gewährt ergonomisch entworfene Karren und Schlepper Arbeiter jeder Form, Größe, Geschlechtes und körperlichen Fähigkeit unterbringen, Versorgungsmaterial-Kette Manager mit maximalem Gebrauch von ihrer Mannschaft versehend.

2009 seemed like the year that would never end. For manufacturers, the bad news just kept on coming. But hope seems to have finally struggled above the horizon. From the depths of last winter’s discontent, 2009 has risen to end on a high note for material handling manufacturers and, indeed, most U.S. manufacturers. Reports indicate that U.S. manufacturing has finally turned the corner, and we can expect 2010 to be a far more productive and more profitable year. Break out the champagne!
The fourth quarter of 2009 saw strong manufacturing growth. With the job market showing signs of stabilization and housing prices beginning to climb toward normal, November brought a cautious increase in consumer spending. Manufacturing benefitted from increased orders for durable goods during the fourth quarter as customers started restocking their shelves. While durable goods orders in November were less than robust, they were twice the amount forecast by economists. Overall, the U.S. economic picture looks hopefully optimistic for the first time since the recession hit.
“We are seeing progress in a number of areas, from increases in consumer spending and business spending to growth in exports,” Brian Bethune, an economist at IHS Global Economics told the Associated Press last week. “It all adds up to a recovery that is gaining some momentum.”
Bethune and other economists are predicting a 4% annual rate of economic growth (as measured by gross domestic product) for the final quarter of 2009. In addition to durable goods, particularly a growing increase in high ticket items, industrial growth into the new year is expected to come from increased equipment and software purchases. Ergonomic material handling equipment sales are expected to increase as manufacturers and business owners seek out ways to increase worker productivity and decrease healthcare costs. Expected new regulatory requirements aimed at protecting worker health and safety are also expected to drive up sales of ergonomic carts and tugs.

In this space we’ve often extolled the value of ergonomics and ergonomic equipment. Ergonomically-designed material handling equipment like DJ Products’ CartCaddy motorized carts and tugs offer multiple benefits in the workplace, including:
- Reducing worker injuries and ensuring a safe work environment
- Improving worker morale by decreasing physical stress and strain during task performance
- Decreasing medical, insurance and worker’s compensation costs
- Decreasing time-lost costs due to worker injury and recovery/rehabilitation
- Increasing productivity, efficiency and profitability
But as Anne Kramer, CEO and President of Ergo Works, Inc., pointed out in a recent article posted on DiversityBusiness.com, ergonomics also opens the workplace to a more diverse workforce by improving accessibility.
Ergonomics is the science of fitting the task to the worker, rather than forcing the worker to contort his body to perform the task. Ergonomic design recognizes that workers come in all sizes of varying physical ability. Recognizing the great diversity among workers, ergonomic design allows equipment to be positioned and used by a maximum number of workers.
Ergonomic equipment is designed to minimize the overexertion or cumulative trauma of manual lifting, pushing, pulling, stretching and other repetitive tasks that can injure soft muscle tissues. Kramer notes that back and shoulder injuries account for one-third of all missed work days. When the burden of a task is assumed by the equipment instead of the worker’s back, the need for inappropriate exertion is eliminated and the risk of injury is reduced. Ergonomics allows a more diverse group of workers to perform the same task or use the same piece of equipment, keeping injury rates low and productivity high. Use of ergonomic equipment allows employers to satisfy their legal responsibility to accommodate workers, maximizes use of their workforce and reflects a commitment to diversity in the workplace.
