SARANAC LAKE — With the ongoing labor gap, finding employees is a tough job. “This is our 75th year and hiring has never been harder,” said Rice Furniture’s Clyde Baker. Rice Furniture has advertised a job opening for over a month online, in print and on a sign out in front of the store, none of which has led to new applicants, Baker said. As businesses struggle to find employees, they’re adapting — offering higher pay, changing how they advertise and altering their operations to make up for the gap. With plenty of job openings, hiring has become more competitive. Companies have to incentivize employees to either stay or to join their staff. Some businesses are offering competitive wages. Others have gotten creative. Stewart’s Shops and McDonald’s are offering scholarships to part-time college employees and discounting meals on the job. The Best Western in Saranac Lake is offering signing bonuses in its contracts.
