On the surface it looks like US employment is strong but labor participation is lower than pre-pandemic levels and there are nearly four million part-time workers, many of which have multiple jobs, Vivian Wang, founder and CEO of Landed, tells Bloomberg Intelligence. In this episode of the Choppin’ It Up podcast, Wang sits down with BI’s senior restaurant and foodservice analyst Michael Halen to discuss how fewer full-time jobs and the gig economy are impacting restaurant hiring and retention. She also commented on application volume, chat bots and late-night staffing improvements.
