Transport, logistics and motor vehicles

Transport, logistics, repair and maintenance of motor vehicles provide transport, logistics, warehousing, postal and courier services and repair and maintenance of motor vehicles.

The future of transport, logistics, repair and maintenance of motor vehicles is characterised by rapid technological progress and increasing international competition.

In the future, the need for workers will decrease slightly, especially with the advent of self-driving cars, smart transport systems and delivery robots. In the future, the posts of logisticians, postal workers, lift operators, drivers and technicians will be reduced. Passenger transport suffered a major setback from the COVID-19 restrictions, and not all passenger flows may recover, so the number of employees may remain smaller in the future.

The positions of transport and logistics managers and top specialists, air traffic controllers and pilots, and vehicle diagnostics are emerging. This is related to the development of technology, the growth of passenger and freight transport.

Overall, graduates of professional education will continue to fill the jobs of the future, but the need for public transport and truck drivers and truck and bus technicians is greater than the number of workers with the right skills, according to entrepreneurs.

More needs to be done to train transport and logistics managers and top specialists, warehouse workers, purchasing specialists and warehouse managers. Ports and freight terminals lack docker-trained personnel. Less is needed for graduates of motor vehicle-related curricula.

Information is based on the OSKA Transport, Logistics, Motor Vehicle Repair and Maintenance Workforce and Skills Survey, which projected industry employment until 2027.
