Currents: Episode 12 -- The Aging Workforce

If you're working at a utility, take a look around your desk. You're looking at one of the biggest threats to reliability and, some say, the very future of the industry: the aging workforce. Almost half of the engineers and operations personnel around you, and maybe even YOU, will be retiring in the next five to ten years. And when they all leave, there may be no one to take their place. So what's the industry going to do? If there isn't a workforce in the pipeline, you go out and make one. On this episode of Currents, we tell you about a multi-pronged approach that Massachusetts-based utility NSTAR is taking to make sure they can replace the people about to walk out the door.
