Skills DC

The cascading impacts of Covid-19 have dramatically changed the labor market as we know it, affecting both work environments and the needs of employees. Despite record low unemployment rates in the US, many business owners have struggled to fill open positions. The reality of being chronically understaffed has made financial recovery challenging. To overcome these challenges, employers must adapt and change the way that they recruit and retain employees.
