The Labour Landscape in Canada<\/h2>\n

Let’s discuss one of the shared missions of our business community and why we think it’s important to discuss how to obtain and retain talent. Recent surveys<\/a> say about 42% of workers have already started looking for a new job in 2024, up from July 2023.\u00a0The labour shortage, whether it be from an aging population, declining birth rates, reduced immigration, and the shift to remote work. This has caused a labour shortage in Canada, making retaining and recruiting skilled employees a leading challenge for businesses to face in the short term. In turn, businesses plan on increasing work hours for management and current employees to mitigate these labour obstacles. So, how can you combat this with labour retention strategies? We’re here with the help of Immigrate Software to give you tips, tricks, and tactical advice on overcoming any labour shortage you have in your business.<\/p>\n
