BHV introduces new event format

05.12.2022
BREMEN. How can we counter the shortage of skilled workers and young talent in the port and logistics sector? This was the topic discussed by more than 20 participants from the port and logistics industry at the first “BHV meet-up of HR professionals” organised by the BHV-Bremische Hafen- und Logistikvertretung association in October. This new event format was initiated by a BHV working group on the shortage of skilled workers and the recruitment of young talent into the port and logistics industry. The gathering is due to take place regularly. “We would like to give HR professionals in the BHV the opportunity to meet with like-minded people on a regular basis,” explained Petra Lüdeke, general manager of BHV. And Axel Müller, spokesman for the BHV working group involved with finding ways of tackling the shortage of skilled workers, among other things, added: “It is important that companies share their experiences, as, only together, can we develop solutions for recruiting skilled workers and young people.”
