With many companies motioning to reshore their operations in the wake of global supply chain disruptions, a number of automation technologies have become important tools helping companies navigate domestic labor shortages. However, while the integration of automation technologies has eliminated some need for unskilled labor, it has also created an increased need for skilled labor, placing many manufacturers in a difficult conundrum.
