Overcome the labor shortage with next-gen restaurant staffing
Restaurants field plenty of customer complaints: long lines, pricing mixups — the list goes on. If you thought throwing more team members at the problem was the solution, you aren’t alone. Here’s the kicker: You can avoid all of those grievances with a trimmer staff if you optimize ops with the right tech.
Can recruiting software help with contractor gig recruiting?
Hiring staff can help small business owners focus on the future vs. the day-to-day, but the job requirements might not call for a part or full-time hire. Gig workers could be a great solution, and with the right human resources functionality, onboarding gig workers is a snap.
