Gusto partnered with NAWBO to survey over 1,000 women business owners about their experiences filling open positions in the current labor market—and strategies they have used to solve staffing shortages. The report highlights findings from two areas in which relatively little data-based research has been conducted to date: the role that vaccination requirements and employee financial benefits offerings played on employee recruitment and retention during this hiring squeeze. Forty percent of women business owners who posted an open position during the summer or fall have had trouble filling this role. Read about these and other key findings here.
