4. Tailor Training to the Real Work Environment The Problem: Generic Training = Missed Expectations Training content that doesn’t reflect the real demands of your operation leads to confusion, rework, and inconsistency. Workers might understand “what” the job is — but not “how” it’s actually done at your facility. What to Do Instead ● Customize onboarding by shift type, production line, or job family ● Use visual SOPs and real-world simulation ● Train supervisors to reinforce learning with coaching moments ● Integrate safety, quality, and production in every module Real-World Fix: GATE is customized to fit your facility’s requirements — whether you operate in GMP-regulated cleanrooms, high-speed packaging lines, or FDA-compliant warehouses. From 5S systems to gowning to RF scanning, GATE replicates your reality so candidates walk in already aligned.
