New Page Puts Youthful Focus on Manufacturing

Sam — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 17:25:04 +0000

Manufacturing is one of the most important industries in the nation today. Jobs created in the industry help to create other jobs, such as sales and administration. Furthermore, despite the trend of outsourcing to foreign countries, the United State still remains the top manufacturer in the world. But another trend exists in the manufacturing industry. That trend is the aging of the current workforce and shortage of skilled laborers due to the declining interest from young people in pursuing manufacturing careers.

RiteWay recognizes the importance of encouraging the youth to pursue a career in manufacturing, so we created a new page under the tab of “Youth.” This new page is centered around addressing the biases against manufacturing and demonstrating the true value that a career in the field really has. On this page, we have included multiple links to non-profit organizations that educate students about the many opportunities in manufacturing and assist those that are considering a career in the field.

So please, feel free to visit our new page and let us know what you think or share any link you believe would be beneficial to include.

Americans Favors U.S. Manufacturing

Sam — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:56:13 +0000

A recent Rasmussen Reports telephone survey revealed that the majority of Americans are in favor of U.S. manufacturing. The article showed that 55% believe that government funds should be used to subsidize manufacturers in the United States through tax credits and other incentives. Thirty-one percent (31%) disagreed and 15% were unsure.

This is great news for the manufacturing industry. It shows the revival of faith in American manufacturing, something that until recently had been slowly disappearing. So as a fellow manufacturer, it is time for us to take pride in this support and rise up to build a better future for this country.

Bringing the Youth Back Into Manufacturing

RiteWay Manufacturing — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 20:09:49 +0000

Over the last few years, manufacturers within the United States have been experiencing labor shortages due to the decrease in skilled laborers. This declining workforce has been fueled by a number of factors: a large number of laborers reaching retirement age, decreases in the number of shop classes offered in high school, and the misconception of manufacturing careers as unglamorous and low-paying. However, many manufacturing careers actually offer great pay along with advancement opportunities. Another plus is that many manufacturers are currently hiring, even during this slow economy.

Several organizations are looking to change the negative stereotypes of manufacturing. One of these is Nuts, Bolts, and Thingamajigs, a foundation created by the Fabricators & Manufacturers Association. The goal of this organization is to change the negative perceptions regarding manufacturing careers and inspire young people to pursue careers in the manufacturing sector. Partnering with colleges and manufacturers across the country, they hold several manufacturing camps for high school students and award scholarships to many students that plan on earning a degree or certification in manufacturing.

Manufacturing is an exciting industry offering plenty of rewarding careers, so it is important to keep the youth interested. So please, grab your gloves, your hammers, and your welding torches, and help us create the next great manufacturing generation!
