SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – As the California economy finally begins to reopen, restaurants and business that have been shut down for months are starting to looking to hire new employees so they can once again fully reopen.
But, many of these businesses are having trouble finding people to work, since they are are being incentivized to stay home with payments from our government. If you make more money staying home, having extra free time, why would one commit to working 40 hours a week for less money?
Many say these people aren’t being lazy, they are just being rational.
In order to find workers, restaurants are promising more pay and benefits to get potential workers to commit to their job openings.
