The driver shortage in Lombardy and throughout Italy is pushing many companies and trade unions to develop initiatives to encourage young professionals to enter the workforce. The MIS Group, in collaboration with the Storti Group and the FIT-CISL Presidium Secretariat of Cremona, within the Territorial Union of Cremona, Mantua, CISL ASSE DEL PO, and IAL Lombardia of Cremona, has joined a training project for young drivers to obtain the CE and CQC driving licenses. The course is organized in two phases: the first is preparatory, providing the necessary information to program candidates through meetings with transport industry experts. The second phase is the actual training project for obtaining the licenses. MIS has launched a significant hiring campaign motivated by investments for a total of 30 new vehicles, to be completed by the end of 2022. Each month, several units are joining the current fleet. Opportunities are not limited to drivers; new hires are also planned for other operational roles at the MIS Group’s intermodal terminals and in technical and maintenance management. Several businesses in the Cremona area are participating in the project, demonstrating an economic fabric that strives to team up and collaborate to address the challenges of logistics, a sector on which the competitiveness of many manufacturing and industrial sectors depends.
