-- 小型企業報告稱,4月勞動力短缺問題依然存在。根據美國獨立企業聯合會(NFIB)週四發布的一項調查,經季節性調整後,34%的受訪者表示難以招募到所需員工,高於上月的32%。 NFIB小型企業就業指數從3月的101.6降至4月份的100.4,高於100.0的歷史平均水平,但低於2025年的平均水平101.2。 NFIB首席經濟學家比爾鄧克爾伯格表示:“即使在就業指數走弱的月份,仍有超過一半的小型企業主表示正在招聘或嘗試招聘員工。合格求職者短缺一直是小型企業面臨的主要障礙,雇主們正努力填補空缺職位。” 將勞動力品質列為首要業務關注點的企業主比例從15%上升至18%,而將勞動成本列為最重要關注點的企業主比例為9%,低於3月份的10%。 約53%的業主表示他們本月正在嘗試招聘,高於3月的52%。在正在招募或嘗試招募的受訪者中,約87%的人表示他們很少或根本沒有找到符合職位要求的合格申請人。 經季節性調整後,4月淨30%的業主表示需要提高薪資才能招募員工,低於3月的33%。淨18%的業主表示他們計劃在未來三個月內提高薪酬,與3月份持平。
