Around 250 employees are employed in production, maintenance and administration., but numbers could be significantly more, according to managing director Carsten Doehring. \u201cThe order situation is good, but the labour market is unfortunately difficult. In the wood industry, we offer attractive and future-proof jobs for skilled workers who want to follow our successful path,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>At Lauterbach, young people can currently learn four apprenticeships in the fields of industrial mechanics, electronics, woodworking mechanics and machine and plant management.<\/p>\n<p>Pfeifer is expanding the training by working on a concept to strengthen the site with trainees as early as 2025. As one of the largest employers in the Vogelsberg district, Pfeifer will intensify the development and further training of existing staff at the same time. Alongside the training initiatives, the Lauterbach plant will also be receiving capital investment. During the summer, the drying chambers are to receive a new AI-supported control system, while electric and hybrid forklifts are being added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe construction of a new hall with charging stations for loading the electrically powered industrial trucks is being implemented in order to drive forward the gradual conversion of the fleet to electric drive,\u201d said Pfeifer.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leading European sawmiller Pfeifer Group is taking active measures to combat staff shortages by creating a new training programme at its Lauterbach mill from 2025.
