Cleveland, Ohio – Always officially celebrated on the first Friday in October, Manufacturing Day can be celebrated any day of the year when a manufacturer organizes an event to share what they do with their community.
Each year the official calendar of events includes events that happen in nearly every month of the year.
WHERE do Manufacturing Day events occur?
Manufacturing Day events occur at manufacturing facilities and educational institutions across North America. Events in can be found on the Manufacturing Day website’s Find an Event page. This events list is updated daily and can be searched by country, state/province, and city.
WHY is there a Manufacturing Day?
Modern manufacturing environments are commonly thought of as dark, dangerous factories designed for low-skilled workers. Manufacturing Day addresses this misperception by giving manufacturers an opportunity to open their doors and show, in a coordinated effort, what manufacturing really is today:
- Manufacturing is technologically advanced, with ample use of automation, 3D printing, robots, and screen technology.
- The annual average salary of manufacturing workers is more than $77,000.
- Manufacturers have the highest job tenure in the private sector.
- 90% of manufacturing workers have medical benefits.
It’s not too late to find an event to attend today.
