The Real Cost of Staff Shortages
The UK’s automotive industry is revving its engines, but a shortage of skilled workers is breaking progress. With vacancy rates soaring above the national average, it’s no surprise that companies are struggling to keep up with the demand for electric vehicles and other cutting-edge technologies.
The cost of this talent crisis is evident: lost productivity, delayed projects, and a failure to innovate. These challenges slow down growth and threaten the industry’s competitive edge.
The auto sector stands at a crossroads and needs to adapt to future trends while addressing the skills gap to maintain a thriving workforce.
