RESULTS:
-
Better filling the position of maintenance technician within industrial companies (manufacturing companies, service companies, machine manufacturers, specialised maintenance companies,) in the cooperating regions;
-
Ensure better filling of the maintenance technician function;
-
Training maintenance technicians in a competence- and practice-oriented way that results in broadening and deepening their knowledge. In this way, they become more employable and are lifted to a higher level;
-
Better integrate theory and practice in the existing practical training courses (mainly in Zeeland);
-
Realising completely new didactic material for the "maintenance" component (mainly in Flanders);
-
Recruit job-seekers;
-
Realise further training and retraining for the position of maintenance technician and thus meet the labour market shortage.
In both the Flemish and Dutch labour markets, there is a serious shortage of technical workers. This poses a serious economic threat to the companies that need these people: lower profitability, less ability to innovate, problems in production, decline in customer satisfaction, structurally more overtime and lower quality of service. What is striking here is that companies themselves are taking very little concrete action to address labour market bottlenecks.
