Swiss-Tech Onboarding Process Improvement Case Study

This case study details the challenges faced by Swiss-Tech, a precision Swiss-machining manufacturing company, regarding their inconsistent onboarding process. Prior to partnering with WorkForge, onboarding took up to 8 weeks, leading to delayed productivity, increased machine downtime, and high employee turnover. To address these issues, Swiss-Tech implemented a customized learning and development solution from WorkForge, which included a unified learning management system (LMS) that integrated both Swiss-Tech's training materials and WorkForge's content library. The new training structure involved job-specific Learning Paths and milestone training sessions, significantly reducing onboarding time to roughly 1 week and cutting training costs by 88%. The results included improved employee retention, faster productivity for new hires, and higher satisfaction rates among employees. The case study illustrates how the collaboration with WorkForge enabled Swiss-Tech to effectively meet increased hiring demands while enhancing their training efficiency.
