PITRS
2011/2012 Penang Industrial Talent Requirement Study

The Penang Industrial Talent Requirement Study (PITRS) is a PSDC  publication which addresses the key issue of whether Penang’s skilled talents are sufficiently equipped to meet the demands of this new knowledge, technology, and information-driven global environment. It estimates the current capacity and proficiency of the Penang workforce, as well as gauges the future manpower requirements of the State’s manufacturing sector in the timeframe of the next one to two years.  Based on feedback and evaluation of a representative sampling of leading global and local manufacturing companies, the Study also considers the issues of skills mismatch and proficiency gaps, and the key industry recommendations for remedial action which are of pressing relevance to Penang’s manufacturing economy today. 

The 2011/2012 PITRS Report is highly recommended for corporate leaders, industry watchers, analysts, and others with a keen interest in the Penang manufacturing industry and the local talent supply scenario.  Limited copies of the Report are available for purchase at RM500 each.
