Fifty-one percent of manufacturing companies are being negatively impacted by the Great Resignation according to a recent survey by isolved, a G2 leader in human resources (HR) management systems for the 10th consecutive quarter and a Champion in Workforce Management from SoftwareReviews. These retention challenges are among the top reasons why 43 percent of manufacturers say they will invest in HR analytics this year after the pandemic not only created a talent shortage for skilled workers but also supply-chain issues. isolved is helping its manufacturing customers intelligently connect HR processes from retention and recruiting to performance and payroll with its just-announced isolved People Cloud for Manufacturing offering – complete with Predictive People Analytics.
