BUFFALO, NY (The Buffalo News) — Employers are still struggling to find the workers they need.
That point shone through once again in the Buffalo Niagara Partnership's annual survey of its members' top concerns. For the the third straight year, finding and keeping qualified talent was their No. 1 worry.
Nearly 3 of every 4 members who responded said they have unfilled jobs. But the survey also indicated employers aren't giving up: 70% said they were planning to add jobs this year. Forty four percent said they struggle to achieve a diverse workforce.
So, what are employers doing to try to keep workers on board?
