Some US Restaurants Are Struggling To Find New Employees And People Lay Down The Reasons Why
Jonas Grinevičius and
Ilona Baliūnaitė
With the Covid-19 pandemic continuing to ravage large parts of the world, its effects are felt by more and more people. And not just the devastating health issues-the short-term and long-term economic impact as well. Some restaurants, cafes, and fast-food chains in the US are on the lookout for new staff members. Desperately. There's a shortage of applicants in some places. However, some businesses aren't having much success, trying all kinds of tactics to lure in potential workers. But some people have had enough and voiced their opinions about the ills of working low-paying menial jobs where employees aren't respected as much as they should be. In their opinion, businesses have to fundamentally change their approach to be more humane. And it's not just about better finances. You'll find some of their takes below, dear Pandas. When you're done reading, share your thoughts and feelings about the job market right now. Eddy Ng, the incoming Smith Professor of Equity and Inclusion in Business at Queen's University in Ontario, explained to Bored Panda that the Covid-19 pandemic has created what economists are calling a K-shape recovery where some sectors have been doing very well or have the potential to bounce back (they're on the upper arm of the 'K') while others languish (and are on the lower arm of the 'K'). While some people pointed out that restaurants are desperate to find staff others shared the reasons why they might be struggling to fill those positions
For instance, those workers who are able to adjust their work remain mostly unaffected by the pandemic. One of the ways they can do this is by teleworking. Meanwhile, some sectors like logistics and delivery, groceries, ICT, and online entertainment have been doing remarkably well by filling the new demands created by the pandemic economy. "Others, such as education, are able to pivot and their employees have to retool to adapt to new ways of working. Most of these workers ride the upper arm of the K-curve," Professor Ng said. "Yet some sectors, like travel, hospitality, in-person retail, will decline or even disappear because they are unable to survive the duration of the pandemic. The workers will ride the lower arm of the K-curve. These workers will essentially have to retool, learn new skills, and join industries that survived or emerged from the pandemic," he pointed out. However, there's room to be optimistic, too! And Professor Ng believes that we're seeing light at the end of the tunnel. "For sectors looking to fill the demand for workers, they will need to step up in terms of better working conditions and compensation. This includes ensuring a safe work environment and the provision of paid sick days especially if the work involves a high level of exposure to COVID-19." One of the ways in which paid sick days actually pay off for the company, not just the employees, includes greater loyalty. Others complained that some fast-food franchises refuse to pay a living wage because it might hurt their bottom line
While still others even made memes to show how weird it is to blame people for having high standards and wanting to not struggle to survive
While some businesses are struggling to look for new employees, however, others are struggling to even pay the rent and keep the lights on. The Chicago Sun Times and The Associated Press explain that around 30 percent of the jobs that the United States lost to the Covid-19 pandemic aren't expected to come back. These jobs mostly include face-to-face contact with customers, including working at restaurants, hotels, retailers, and even entertainment venues. In short, this means that a large number of Americans will have to look for a job elsewhere or even learn new skills and specialize anew. However, on the flip side, nobody knows for sure what the job market will look like once the pandemic is under control. We might have a situation that's far more optimistic, with more businesses bouncing back than expected while others make the necessary shifts to accommodate a more empathetic view of their employees. Mass vaccination programs are an indication that there could be a light at the end of the tunnel in the fight against Covid, though the current situation in India indicates the opposite trend. Folks all over the internet had a lot to say on the topic and shared their opinions about working low-paying jobs with poor working conditions

It was always meant to be a place where teenagers could learn to have a good work ethic, and then after high school, learn a better skill and get a better job! Many years ago, everyone knew this. I know. I graduated from high school many decades ago, and this was always true.

Who works the night shifts when kids are supposed to be getting their homework done? The fact is that it isn't just high school kids that work at those places...and those places couldn't even run if it only hired teenagers....and even if they could food service is a hard job physically and mentally and those kids deserve to earn a wage that can at least help them put a dent in their college tuition. 0 0points reply Don Quixote Don Quixote Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago This comment is hidden.
