摘要: Labor is hard to find and even harder to hang onto right now. Despite the recent rash of layoffs in certain industry sectors, the April jobs report painted the picture of a business world that's squarely in hiring mode. Companies hired 253,000 new workers in April, outpacing Wall Street's 180,000 estimate, and the unemployment rate remained at 3.4%-its lowest level in 54 years.Also in April, average hourly earnings rose 0.5% for the month and increased 4.4% from one year earlier-both higher than expected. Even in the face of potential economic headwinds, rising interest rates and high inflation, organizations are both hiring and paying more for that talent.While some industry sectors are downsizing their labor forces, logistics talent remains elusive in the current job market. To address the problem, companies are stepping up their recruiting and retention processes; universities and trade schools are enhancing their curriculum to ensure graduates are ready to fill the open positions; and industry associations are helping their members by providing more labor-focused support, courses, and workshops.
