UK Experiences Staff Shortages as Brexit Bites

Share Print 0

A shortage of staff for British employers worsened in July, hurt by the departure of European Union workers after last year’s Brexit vote, a group representing recruitment agencies said on Tuesday.

The Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC) said the availability of staff overall suffered its biggest fall last month in a year and a half.

“The parts of the economy most reliant on European workers are under even more pressure as many EU workers return home,” REC Chief Executive Kevin Green said.
