How to Engage Hourly Employees for Productivity Gains

An IndustryWeek Webinar Invitation

Description

As the manufacturing competitive landscape continues to present new demands for lower pricing and higher quality, more organizations are looking for quick and impactful solutions, fractional reductions in cost, and opportunities to drive new productivity gains. While both workforce management and employee engagement have been recognized separately by most organizations as accelerators of business performance, many have not looked at these strategies in tandem to leverage powerful insights across stakeholder groups and prioritize immediate opportunities.
