  3. New Jersey has over????manufacturers

  4. New Jersey has over17,000manufacturers

  5. US vs. the World in Cost of Manufacturing • The Boston Consulting Group released a report Friday on its study of manufacturing costs in the 25 biggest exporting countries. Only seven of those countries had lower manufacturing costs than the United States did this year. And since 2004, U.S. manufacturers have improved their competitiveness compared with every major exporter except India, Mexico and the Netherlands. • In 2004, for example, manufacturing in China cost 14 percent less than manufacturing in the United States. By this year, the China advantage had narrowed to 5 percent. If the trends continue, Boston Consulting found, U.S. manufacturing will be less expensive than China’s by 2018. • Over the past decade, labor costs, adjusted to reflect productivity gains, shot up 187 percent at factories in China, compared with 27 percent in the United States. The value of China’s currency has risen more than 30 percent against the U.S. dollar over the past decade. • The countries where manufacturing was cheaper than in the United States are Indonesia, India, Mexico, Thailand, China, Taiwan and Russia.

  6. What Do Manufacturers Look Like Today? Wall, NJ

  7. Fewer professional staff Less R&D Less investment in capital upgrades Less training Lower wages 89%of NJ’s manufacturers have less than 50 employees 33%of NJ’s manufacturing employees work in companies bigger than 500 employees

  8. The advanced manufacturing sector and its components with some examples of industries classified within them Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing Chemical Manufacturing • Basic chemical • Pharmaceutical & medicine • Cleaning compound and toiletry • Paint, coating & adhesive • Architectural and structural metals • Machine shops and threaded product • Forging and stamping • Coating, engraving, and heat treating metals • Computers and peripheral equipment • Communications equipment • Audio and visual equipment • Semiconductors and other electronic components Machinery Manufacturing • Industrial machinery • HVAC and commercial refrigeration equipment • Commercial and service industry machinery • Turbine and power transmission Source: North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Prepared by: New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development April, 2014

  9. Employment in advanced manufacturing is highly concentrated in New Jersey’s most populous counties and along the Interstate 95 corridor… New Jersey offers unique business advantages including: -geographic proximity to roughly 40 percent of the US population, or around 100 million potential consumers -highly educated and very diverse workforce -extensive transportation network in place to carry goods by land, air, and sea Source: NJLW, Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages, Annual Average Prepared by: New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development April, 2014

  10. How to connect? • Middle skills gap • Entry level wages $10-12/hour, but opportunity for advancement with skill/training is high • Move up the ladder

  11. Trends in Advanced Manufacturing • There is an aging workforce. The average age of a worker is 55+ • Creates opportunities for those entering the workforce. • Companies are increasing the use of automated machinery requiring higher skills of their workers. • Requires skills certifications. • There is a reluctance for young people to go into manufacturing instead of going to college right after graduation. • Starting a career in manufacturing after graduation doesn’t preclude continuing one’s education for a 2 year or 4 year degree with companies paying for it.

  12. Skills, Knowledge and Abilities most important to the top 20 occupations found in advanced manufacturing Skills Knowledge Abilities Active listening Critical thinking Speaking Reading comprehension Monitoring Judgment and decision making Complex problem solving Time management Coordination Writing Production and processing Mathematics English language Mechanical Customer and personal service Administration and management Education and training Computers and electronics Engineering and technology Clerical Oral comprehension Oral expression Problem sensitivity Near vision Written comprehension Information ordering Deductive reasoning Speech clarity Speech recognition Inductive reasoning Source: O*NET www.onetonline.org Prepared by: New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development April, 2014 **In addition to industry specific SKAs, effective communication is key**

  26. Looking beyond online… Small employers use a combination of word of mouth, craigslist, temp agencies, and “knocking on the door” Temp to Perm is “the new normal” for entry level roles in manufacturing

  27.
