The great resignation spurs disruption across industries

Pundits are labeling it, The Great Resignation. Employees are quitting their jobs in droves, and employers of all sizes and across industries are facing a talent shortage rarely seen on such a scale. According to the U.S. Labor Department, a record 3.8 million people quit their jobs in April 2021, followed by another 3.6 million in May. The trend has continued through the latter half of 2021, representing a 20-year peak in job vacancies.1

Only time will tell whether this phenomenon constitutes a reactive blip for the job market or whether the Great Resignation represents a long-term employment crisis. Regardless, employers are feeling the strain on operations now and – even if the rate of worker resignations levels off – the experience, institutional knowledge, and talent their workforces take with them will not be replaced easily or very soon.

Across industries, businesses are looking to automation to augment unfilled job roles.

With fewer employees available to maintain the facility, robotics offer a way to supplement the most important (but mundane) tasks, such as floor scrubbing.

For those industries most affected by staffing, the Avidbots Neo autonomous floor scrubbing robot can fill a crucial niche in your cleaning operations, keeping facilities safe and disinfected.
