Mailing Systems Technology - September/October 2008 - (Page 18)

WORKFORCE Even though training is more critical than ever in a bad economy, fewer mail centers are budgeting for outside training. Last year, 48% had a training budget; this year, it is down to 45%. Training generates ideas for cost savings and enhancing productivity, necessities in tight ﬁscal times. There is generally a very hefty ROI in training. There are many more results to be revealed in our next issue when we delve into the operations side of the survey. What are managers doing about IMB? What impact is the New USPS Law having on your peers? What are your biggest challengesthis year? What mail centers have gone green? How much does it cost to process a single piece of mail? Watch for the November issue to get the answers. And watch for even more information in the Mailing System Technology e-newsletters, on our website and at our upcoming conference in Chicago.
