The catering service industry in the United States is caught in a "labor shortage". What is the current situation of service industry employees in the United States?

According to the data of the National Restaurant Association, as of May this year, the industry still lost about 750,000 jobs compared with before the epidemic, accounting for about 6. 1% of the total labor force. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 epidemic, there has been a shortage of workers? Problems have repeatedly appeared in the American catering service industry, affecting not only restaurants and their employees, but also customers' meals.

Now most people don't want to engage in the catering service industry. The main reason is the impact of the epidemic. The epidemic management in the United States is not as strict as that in our country, and many people's lives are not guaranteed. In this case, the industry that has the most contact with people is the catering service industry. Generally, people don't wear masks when eating, so the danger will become greater and fewer people will be willing to engage in this industry.

As can be seen from the above data, the demand for service personnel is very great now. The unemployment rate in the United States is so high, and the service industry is still so difficult to recruit people, which shows what the overall state of the United States is now. Nearly 4.3 million people in the US catering service industry resigned. ? Labor shortage? There are many reasons, for example, during the economic recovery after the epidemic, many people want to seek higher-paying jobs, and there are insufficient child care services.

The shortage of staff in retail and catering services may last for some time, which will increase the performance pressure of these two industries at the end of this year and next year. . During the whole epidemic period, the resignation rate of these industries has remained high. Due to the lack of enough employees willing to do these jobs, these two industries are expected to continue to be restricted. Considering the scale of these two industries, it is expected to put pressure on the overall employment situation in the United States.

Americans advocate freedom very much, and now this state has indirectly brought them great losses. What will happen in the future? It is not known yet, but there is no sign of the end of the epidemic. Then it proves that this phenomenon of lack of work will continue for a long time.
