According to the latest report, the shortage of highly skilled workers in the US continues to worsen. This problem may drag down the construction progress of semiconductor factories that have invested hundreds of billions of dollars across the country and limit future chip production capacity. Unless the industry strengthens collaboration and the government continues to provide financial support, America's plans to revive local chip manufacturing will face major challenges. This new study, jointly conducted by McKinsey and the chip industry organization SEMI, and the US National Science Foundation indicates that the talent gap will be most prominent in Texas, California, Arizona, New York, and Ohio, and these states are the regions with the highest concentration of the new round of semiconductor manufacturing projects in the US. The report predicts that by 2030, the skilled labor gap in the US semiconductor industry will reach up to 157,000 full-time jobs.
