Rising Labor Costs amidst the Aging Workforce to Boost the Robotic swarm Demand
The labor cost is highly significant in the total operating cost, making generally 62%-65% of the total cost. In majority of the cases, manual jobs typically consist of two categories of staff: direct and indirect where industries cover an area of more than 2,00,000 square feet. Direct staff is responsible for executing the process while indirect staff is for the back-end support for direct staff. The presence of both direct and indirect staff coupled along with department managers presents a crucial cost in operating a warehouse. Rise in the hourly wages from $19.6 in 2017 to $22.7 in 2020. Moreover, the average weekly hours have increased 42.11 in 2017 to 39.2 in 2020 that has relatively created stagnant warehouse productivity. As average hourly earnings will hike further amidst the rising global inflation with weekly hours to remain constant or decline in the coming years, the operating costs are bound to advance. Apart from this, the developing nations have seen a constant growth in the ageing workforce resulting in issues related to safety, quality control and productivity. Thus, the automation of industries has become a notable means to tackle the rising wages and workforce age. This has resulted in the warehouse and industrial operators to rely upon the robotics to provide a convenient and efficient way of reducing the operational costs while simultaneously maintaining the productivity at optimum levels. This is where swarm intelligence comes into the picture.
