Worker shortages hitting restaurants in Marion County
House of Hunan is preparing for a rough summer.
During this time of year, the Chinese restaurant in Marion is usually getting a bunch of online applications from teens who are looking for a summer job.
But not this year, said manager Frank Lo. We ve noticed we haven t been getting as many as we normally do and the apps that we do get, my manager has been trying to schedule interviews and the majority of them don t even show up, he said.
Businesses in Marion County and across the country are experiencing difficulty filling positions, even as COVID-19 cases fall and more people become vaccinated. According to The Washington Post, the U.S. economy added just 266,000 jobs in April, a figure that fell well below the nearly 1 million projected. This a big drop in comparison to March when the economy saw the addition of 770,000 jobs.
