This report provides a brief overview of the manufacturing sector in Hamilton. It brings to light many of the skills challenges the industry is facing, and where efforts need to focus to help alleviate the issues.

Based on data analysis and in consultation with the advisory team on the "Putting the Puzzle Together: Skills Alignment in Hamilton's Transforming Economy" project, five sectors with evidence of a skills mismatch were chosen to spotlight. Here we highlight Manufacturing. 

The release of the 2014 Labour Market Plan takes place on October 14, 2014. Every week leading up to the Labour Market Plan, Workforce Planning Hamilton will be releasing two industry profiles of the top ten industries of employment.

These profiles use the most current information available from the 2011 National Household Survey and are a great source of information including subsector employment, business counts, educational requirements and the top occupations by industry.
