Overcoming a Shortage of Skilled TechniciansFinding the Labor Force to Support a Growing IndustryLast year the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics forecast that technician jobs in the HVAC industry have a potential growth rate as high as 34 percent. That’s triple the national average. Nationwide, that’s nearly 30,000 workers per year just to replace retirements in the field, and the industry is still growing. The needed labor can’t simply be outsourced, and that means special effort needs to be undertaken to make the industry more attractive to young workers looking for a great career. Better Communication & Education
Improving product technology, advances in green HVAC, energy efficiency, and the use of sophisticated software and equipment like robotic total stations mean that a career in HVAC can present a life-long challenge in continuing education and advancement. With a network of 38 campuses in 17 states, the Lincoln Group of Schools is one career training school that has taken on the challenge and recognizes both the need and the potential in the field. Two of their HVAC schools, one in New Jersey and the other in Texas had been granted six year HVAC Excellence Accreditation. Of course every HVAC contractor, fabricator, and B.I.M. service provider that sees its own critical need for a sustained labor force should be working closely with their local technical schools to encourage the talent needed now and in the years ahead. Mentorship Programs
The cost of training and assisting new workers in achieving their certifications might once have been seen as an unnecessary expense. Today, finding highly motivated workers and doing whatever it takes to integrate them into your workforce is an investment in the future, and, for some businesses, and investment in survival. Recently, Jon Hill of Hill & Company was interviewed in The Oklahoman about his company’s approach to mentorship. Innovative Hiring Services
