Not surprisingly, the Covid-19 pandemic is still affecting labor force participation and unemployment among American workers 18 months after its onset. Today’s labor shortage remains a major issue for our customers today, as well as ensuring they have the coverage needed to run their facility if employees are quarantined.
One of those customers found themselves lacking primarily in skilled millwrights. Knowing that it takes a lot of time to find that kind of talent, they turned to Decatur Industrial to fill the gaps. This facility required a planned daily outage once a week. However, they had been consistently short on manpower to accomplish the job. As a partner to this customer, we offered our millwright services so they could meet their plant performance goal. These services started at the height of the pandemic and continue to this very day.
To date, we have logged over 40, 40- hour weeks of millwright work at the customer site. Our team enjoys knowing that our efforts have helped enabled the plant to hit production numbers.
Decatur Industrial has the talent on our team to help customers keep on schedule with items they don’t have the manpower to achieve. Contact us today to see how we can help.
