All Maintenance Needs Is A Little TLC
I write from a personal perspective: Maintenance has taken a bad rap. We’re not a bunch of knuckle-dragging, coffee-slurping, computer-illiterates that never made it past eighth grade. We are, in fact, a skilled, experienced and largely well-trained workforce, excellent at troubleshooting and proficient in the systems that run our plants. Unfortunately, we also reflect an aging workforce, with no deep bench to call upon at this point in the game. What we need is a little TLC.
