Section 21: Community News Subject: Lifeguard Shortage Continues Msg# 1186210

| Chik fil a in West OC is offering a $1000 end of season bonus plus $2/hour increase for the summer. Saw the new Royal Farms is advertising a $500 signing bonus. Businesses are definitely trying creative ideas to get employees. | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I think some creative solutions should be explored. A few ideas pay a retention bonus at the end of the season based upon hours worked. Pay anyone who refers a lifeguard candidate who works at least 30 days a referral bonus. However as Joe has pointed out this is a nationwide problem and is unlikely to be solved by pay alone. College students in particular are looking for more career internship opportunities . A bad month of weather can also have a negative impact on the overall pay for the job. While 30 or 40 years ago being a lifeguard at the shore may have been nirvana for many, like many other positions the nature of desirable work has changed. |
