How automation can solve restaurant labor problems
November 19, 2019
It’s no secret that the United States’ low unemployment rate at 3.7% as of June 2019, is contributing to labor shortage issues in the restaurant industry, something that countries around the world are experiencing as well. A more robust economy means workers have options, causing more to leave the restaurant industry entirely.
For many restaurant operators, the trouble is not just about finding enough low-skilled workers. They must also find skilled staff members to replace the gaps created when more senior and specialized people leave. The costs to hire their replacements, not to mention train and retain them, are enormously high.
This high turnover is a lot for restaurant owners and managers to combat, but there is hope, and the answer lies in automation.
