Felder Group has launched a recruitment campaign for apprenticeships at its Tyrol facilities to address skilled labour shortages in mechanical engineering and metalworking trades. The Hall in Tirol-based manufacturer of woodworking machinery is expanding its dual vocational training programme, which combines on-the-job experience in CNC machining and assembly with classroom instruction. The company, which exports planer-thicknessers, panel saws and CNC routers globally, positions apprenticeship completion as a pathway to specialist roles in machine commissioning and service engineering. No specific intake numbers or financial incentives were disclosed in the announcement.
