As manufacturers face the challenge of an aging workforce, capturing and transferring valuable knowledge to new team members is crucial for maintaining productivity and quality. Here are three recommendations to capture and transfer knowledge effectively: -Document Processes: Create detailed documentation of existing workflows and procedures. This ensures consistency and provides a reference for new employees. -Mentorship Programs: Pair seasoned employees with new hires to facilitate hands-on learning and immediate knowledge transfer like the apprenticeship program at the Manufacturers' Association. -Use of Technology: Implement digital tools to record and share expert knowledge, making it easily accessible for future training. At Ledge Inc., we offer comprehensive support to ensure this transition is seamless and effective. Our team specializes in documentation support and providing the tools necessary to capture this critical knowledge. Let us help you preserve your expertise and train your next generation of skilled workers. We often talk about quality systems like ISO 9001 and while certification is a great step in the journey, taking the next leap forward is critical. Improvements like information capture and transition plans are the natural result of a strong QMS. learn more here - https://lnkd.in/eGi7QqY4
