If you’re having trouble finding great people to work in your restaurant, you’re not alone.

There’s a labor shortage impacting the restaurant industry, made tougher by the pandemic. But there is no shortage of jobs: there are more than 9 million open jobs in the United States. Early on in 2020, we were scrambling to figure out ways to get food to customers and how to give staff enough hours and keep them on the payroll. Now as we enter a recovery stage, the biggest challenge that’s emerged has become finding enough staff to fit the demand. According to 7shifts’ restaurant industry data, shifts scheduled are recovering at a slower rate than sales.

Many feel it’s too soon to come back: according to a survey by Poached, 24% of surveyed restaurant workers said that uncertainty about restrictions on indoor dining was preventing them from coming back. 26% cited concerns of getting themselves or loved ones sick—despite vaccination. There is a bright side—of all respondents, close to 75% are either actively applying or searching for work.

Tune in to hear RASI partner, 7shifts' seven best practices to make sure that you can find great workers and give them a reason to stick with you—shortage or not.
