Eisenach Event Tackles Skilled Labor Shortage with Hands-On Solutions
On May 7, 2026, the Wartburgkreis Economic Development Agency will host an event in Eisenach to tackle the challenge of securing skilled labour. Titled 'Skilled Craftsmanship on Site: Pathways to Securing Skilled Labor', the gathering aims to connect businesses with practical solutions for recruiting and retaining workers—especially in the trades. Employers, executives, HR professionals, and anyone interested in vocational careers are encouraged to attend. The event will take place at Orthopaedic Technology Schindewolf + Schneider GmbH, with doors opening at 1:30 PM. At 2:00 PM, organisers will deliver welcome remarks before participants split into smaller groups at 2:20 PM. A highlight of the afternoon will be a guided company tour, giving attendees direct insight into modern operational processes, training setups, and working conditions.
Representatives from key organisations will be on hand to offer advice and information. These include the Wartburgkreis District Office, Karriereheimat Südwestthüringen, the Thuringia Further Education Agency, and the Thuringian Agency for Skilled Labor Recruitment. The focus will remain on concrete support programmes and fostering direct dialogue between stakeholders.
