Bayou Business Download: A Troubling Labor Force Gap

In this episode we’re talking about the labor market. Why are there many more available jobs than it seems workers to fill them and what does this mean for our economy in the short and long term. We’re joined once again by Partnership Senior Vice President of Research Patrick Jankowski.

Topics covered include:

• The dynamics that have altered the labor force in recent years.
• What sectors are being hit the hardest by labor shortages.
• What could help narrow the gap between the labor force and job openings.
