Skills for Logistics (SfL) is launching a major employer survey to identify key business and skills issues faced by the logistics industry. The survey will include those involved in the moving, handling, storing and wholesale of goods. It will be looking at companies of all sizes across the UK.
"The survey of 4,500 organisations focusing on skills, training and business issues will provide us with a better understanding of the challenges businesses face in the current climate and identify the key drivers for employers when it comes to skills development and training," commented Lucinda Ward, director of marketing and research.
"In turn, this will help SfL to identify the real needs of industry and relevance when it comes to developing qualifications and training initiatives, while at the same time providing a true picture of the logistics sector and the issues it faces."
