Labour – a key trend in logistics

The focus is shifting from headcount to retention, skills development and work quality. Attractive working conditions, ergonomic solutions and clear career paths are key to attracting and retaining talent.

Supporting people in increasingly complex warehouses

  • Human-centred automation – automation and assistive technologies reduce physical strain and repetitive tasks.
  • Upskilling and reskilling – continuous training to operate and supervise advanced systems.
  • Ergonomics and wellbeing – ergonomic truck design, driver assistance systems and wearable support reduce fatigue, injuries and absences.
  • Retention and engagement – clear career paths, a safer environment and technology that helps.

Trends in Logistics report

“Trends in Logistics” is the annual Toyota Material Handling Europe report providing an overview of developments in logistics, with a focus on Europe. The aim is a better understanding of upcoming changes, so companies can make informed investment decisions and respond to threats in time.

Labour on Toyota's radar

Labour shortages remain a key challenge in intralogistics, especially regarding staff availability and continuity of operations. Instead of relying solely on recruitment, Toyota Material Handling Europe looks at how technology can support work when there are fewer workers – through step-by-step automation and operator training.
