In addition to product and process compliance regulations, regulated manufacturers are increasingly facing challenges with workforce compliance. According to the National Association of Manufacturers, manufacturers pay on average $19,564 per employee per year to comply with federal regulations. Employees have a growing list of licenses and certifications that are required to do their jobs. Regulating bodies like the FDA, USDA, OSHA, and others ensure that goods and services, as well as the people who produce them, meet rigorous quality and safety standards.
Non-compliance with workforce regulations can lead not only to fines from regulating bodies, but also to labor shortages and even unplanned production stoppages. Tracking and managing workforce compliance is a crucial aspect of manufacturing in regulated industries.
