With workforce having migrated from States with large rubber clusters, RSDC is gearing up to train local populace in required job roles so that the rubber manufacturing plants could run smoothly.“The Southern states like Kerala, Tamilnadu, Andhra, Telangana and also states like Maharashtra, Gujarat, Punjab & Haryana have witnessed the large exodus of the workforce. Incidentally, these states are also those that house large clusters of Rubber manufacturing units and are facing the heat in view of manpower crunch. These units are voicing the need for local skilled human resources. We have targeted to skill and reskill people in popular job roles required by the rubber manufacturing plants”, said Mr Vinod Simon, Chairman RSDC.
