According to Glassdoor's Workplace Trends for 2022 report, US employers will face a “long period of tight labor markets.” Experts say that in order to combat the labor shortage, employers will need to offer permanent wage increases rather than temporary hiring bonuses and increase their employee engagement in order to retain their current workers. According to a senior economist at Glassdoor, employers can unlock new talent pools by hiring typically overlooked workers like remote workers, workers with a criminal history, and recent retirees.
