Manufacturing Employers Report Widespread Problems with Labor Quality.
Gale, Fred
Rural Conditions and Trends, v9 n3 p22-27 1999
Labor quality is a chief concern of both rural and urban manufacturing employers. New skills required by advanced technology explain part of the problem, but dissatisfaction with work attitude is common to high- and low-tech employers. Lack of a high school diploma is linked to problems with worker skills and attitude. Employers are increasing employee training. (Author/TD)
