Quarterly Economic Recruitment Outlook

Recently we published the results from the Quarterly Recruitment Outlook Q1 2022. The figures show that the pressure on firms struggling to recruit staff remains at record high levels. The key headlines include:

• 4 out of 5 (78%) firms that attempted to recruit facing difficulties in finding staff.
• Hospitality, construction, logistics and manufacturing firms most likely to report difficulties (80% or higher) but all sectors have significant issues.
• Smaller firms reporting increasing wage pressures are making it harder to compete for staff.
