I don’t agree with you. If the employer experiences that people quit their job all the time they will increase pay.

There are a lot of places where the employer just brings in new people when that happens. Again and again and again. The well of people desperate enough for a paycheck just never seems to dry up.

Depends on the job - if it’s specialized sure. If its not then no, they just hire the next guy. There’s always a next guy because there’s always a supply of people looking for jobs even at minimum wage.

This isn't true in many areas. Even when I was in high school with zero experience it was easy to find jobs above minimum wage. Which means almost nobody wanted minimum wage jobs.

Have you ever heard of Amazon? There are like 20 threads about a leaked internal memo that basically says they will dry out the labor pool.

And yet they don’t increase pay or improve employee conditions. So, despite their size and churn, the incentives are insufficient.

[desindol]

Yet, they calculate to have problems next year. So we’ll see.

Or not was there not an article on shortage of teacher recently or earlier in the summer on restaurant not finding staff.

When you are used to exploit your workforce and don't care for churn you probably won't change unless it's too late.

[gtsop]

Not in all sectors. There are many low wage jobs that employeers don't give a damn about constant personel rotation because they always find people and the profits are up

Can't have more first world statement than this one.
