Addressing the Skilled Labor Shortage
Mega-driver: productive fast despite an empty applicant market.
⭐ MEGA-DRIVER
Applicants are missing, young people avoid production. GIRI lowers the entry barrier — and makes you a more attractive employer.

The baby boomers are leaving, and the young are not coming into production. Anyone who has tried to hire a machine operator in the last 5 years knows it: the job posting stays open, applicants are missing, and the few who come often do not stay long.
⚠️
The trigger — how do you recognize it?
- Job postings for machine operators stay open for months
- You have to bring in workers from abroad — with language barriers
- When you do find someone, onboarding takes twice as long as it used to
- Personnel costs rise because you fall back on temp labor
ℹ️
How GIRI addresses it
Lower the entry barrier: the new employee does not have to learn for years first — they follow the instruction on screen. Career changers become productive in 2 weeks instead of 6 months.
Multilingual use: workers from abroad can go straight to the machine — the instruction is available in Polish, Turkish, Romanian.
A modern workplace: young applicants see a digital tool on the plant tour instead of ring binders.
💡
Typical users
- Mid-sized companies with chronic vacancies in production
- Industries with high staffing needs (food, packaging, logistics)
- Sites with a high share of migrant workers
⚠️
What you want to avoid
- Assuming more money solves it — it does not; the pool is simply smaller
- Continuing the old training logic — too expensive, too person-dependent
- Solving language barriers with "German courses" — the instruction must be understandable now
KPI figures are industry benchmarks (SwipeGuide, REWO, POKA), not a GIRI guarantee.
