Often the reduced staff must assume additional responsibilities and roles within the operations. Demands on the new work force have increased exponentially and people want to and must work smarter. To help meet these increasing demands, many companies have reorganized the contribution of maintenance training programs. One of the more obvious benefits of maintenance training is the reduction of unexpected downtime resulting from equipment failure. Employees who know and practice correct operating, assembly and maintenance procedures ultimately help ensure equipment and system reliability.
Training also provides substantial financial benefits.
The return on every dollar spent for training is significant. Reduction in costly downtime achieved from training, more than offsets its cost. By operating equipment efficiently, energy costs are reduced. In addition, efficient operation can provide additional benefits such as qualifying for rebates from electric utility companies. The Training Resource OEMs are in the best position to pass on equipment or system knowledge.
