As companies look to hire and retain warehouse employees, they are looking to higher pay and flexible schedules to incentivize workers. Instawork's annual State of Warehouse Labor report cites “the average hourly pay for warehouse shifts rose by 8% since mid-2020, with expectations for future increases of up to 5% in 2024.” Although warehouse labor is showing signs of improvement and stability according to the 2024 report, “over 40% of respondents indicated they are forgoing some revenue this year due to insufficient staff.” Our Meet Me™ solution boosts worker satisfaction and efficiency with smart coordination of resources to minimize picker travel and downtime. Learn how our innovative approach to fulfillment can help reduce costly employee turnover. 📘 Read the report: https://hubs.li/Q02JFT7_0 ➡️ Learn about Meet Me: https://hubs.li/Q02JFYRp0
