Welcoming Foreigners Might Be the Solution to Labor Shortages

Foreign presence essential to address labor shortages

Local companies in the midst of a devastating labor shortage

The US is experiencing a rather alarming local labor shortage, which is not only related to the health crisis caused by the global Coronavirus pandemic and high unemployment rates, but also to the fact that there are not enough local workers to keep up with market demands.

In fact, nearly half of American or US-based companies openly state that the number of unemployed local workers is not enough to fill job openings nationwide.

Adding to that, local companies that rely heavily on skilled foreign workforce are also going through gigantic hurdles due to certain restrictions implemented by the previous administration (Trump – 2017/2021) on business immigration processes.

Thus, in the eyes of local companies, there are not enough workers to fill available jobs and, at the same time, the federal government has done nothing to improve the options for hiring foreign workers.

Foreign presence essential to address labor shortages

According to a recent Vox report, the US must fix its immigration system to effectively address labor shortages across the country with the help of foreign workers, both skilled and unskilled.

The report analyzes the role of foreign workers in industries that are experiencing the most alarming labor shortages and, unsurprisingly, these are the sectors that are most dependent on foreign workforce.

This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Construction.
  • Accommodation.
  • The US food supply chain.
  • Transportation.

Thus, Vox states that the solution to labor shortages currently hinges on whether political leaders can set aside the debate surrounding immigration and improve processes for local companies to hire foreign workers.

Undocumented workers could also make a significant contribution

Now, it is also important to understand that it is not only about hiring workers from abroad, but also about finding a solution to open legal routes for workers residing in the US undocumented and even foreign nationals who simply need to renew their visas or permits.

In fact, in one of our most recent articles we discussed how bureaucratic obstacles to receive employment authorization are affecting hundreds of thousands of foreign workers who need to renew or apply for the first time for their legal permits.
