Winter is the busiest time for many organizations. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, retailers added 509,300 jobs during the 2022 holiday season alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many employers hire seasonal workers to help manage the demands of the holiday season. For example, online retailers often see a surge in activity around the holidays, as do organizations in hospitality. Yet, bulk hiring workers can present unique challenges for employers, who often must recruit and train employees in a short period of time. While these employees may only be employed for the holiday season, they represent an employer\u2019s brand and can meet the demands and obligations of customers, which ultimately affects an organization\u2019s bottom line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

We recently released an HR Insights article and HR Chat video that provide guidance on how employers can successfully recruit and hire winter and seasonal employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
