Three of the biggest challenges facing the manufacturing industry today:

Values icons

Skill shortage.

A lack of qualified, experienced professionals in the UK manufacturing sector has been a longstanding challenge. 

Now faced with an aging workforce, it's imperative that manufacturing organisations provide adequate sickness support, as well as improving their attraction and retention strategies to appeal to younger generations of workers.
Values icons

Digital innovation.

High-pressure environments and associated burnout has led to absence levels skyrocketing within the manufacturing sector. 

Employers must embrace digitisation and leverage new technology in order to develop a futureproof approach to employee health management and support.

Risk management.

Working in manufacturing can present a number of physical and mental health risks, from hazardous environments to long, unsociable hours.
 
It's imperative that leaders take measures to identify and address risks to employees, as well as remaining compliant with legal processes surrounding employee health.

“We would recommend GoodShape to other organisations who want to streamline processes and reduce absence.”

Heathrow Express

“... when we are alerted to
high levels of absence, such as musculoskeletal problems in the factory, we can proactively address them because we now have clear trigger levels in place.”

HR Director
Philips

“Across 11,800 staff, GoodShape helped to recoup 33,040 working days within 12 months - or the equivalent of returning 144 full-time staff to work.”

HR Director
NHS Trust

“We estimate that we’ve saved £152,000 in terms of increased productivity and efficiency savings. This means that the absence service has provided a great return on investment, and having more employees available to work gives us a far greater opportunity to deliver a good service for our customers.”
