The pace of change in today’s supply chain is relentless—and for distribution center (DC) leaders, the pressure to adapt is higher than ever. Demand spikes. Labor shortages. Turnover. Seasonal fluctuations. All of it forces one big question: Is your workforce ready for what’s next?
If you’re relying solely on internal hiring or conventional staffing methods, the answer might be no. The good news? There’s a smarter, more scalable path forward—and many of the most successful distribution operations are already moving in this direction.
An Unpredictable Labor Market is Costing You
You’re not alone. According to recent labor market data, over 68% of warehouse managers say they struggle to consistently meet performance goals due to staffing gaps. Annual turnover rates in warehouse roles are often above 40%, and the cost of recruiting, onboarding, and training new workers can quickly eat into your margins.
Some warehouse operators are experimenting with tech-driven tools to fill the gap. But digital dashboards and performance analytics only go so far without a dependable, engaged workforce behind them. What today’s DCs need isn’t just better tracking—it’s better people, ready to perform from day one.
