Upskilling is the future
With skilled fork lift engineers retiring faster than new ones are recruited there is an acute skills shortage.
Sure, you could poach someone else’s staff – but the chances are they’ll simply move on: selling their skills to the highest bidder. You could train an apprentice and, by doing so, you’ll benefit from someone who’ll be more loyal, less likely to leave and a better advocate for your business.
Engineer 2.0 – taking service to the next level
How can you help your customers measure the quality, value-for-money or even the benefit of a service or inspection? The answer is that it’s all down to your engineer and how s/he communicates the features and benefits of the work carried out.
At F-TEC, we have developed a course that specifically addresses this issue: Customer Service Training for Service Engineers.
