Sabrina Wnorowski, vice president of HR at Radial which operates fulfillment centers for brands such as Cole Haan, Aeropostale and the Children’s Place said that every year it gets harder and it gets more challenging to attract workers. She said that the company has been offering daily raffles with prizes like iPads, Playstations and throwing parties and on-site food trucks in an attempt to attract 27,000 warehouse workers this year. "Given high unemployment, you’d expect that it would be easy to attract labor. But it’s been the opposite", she says. The warehouse industry has already cycled through millions of workers and many say that they would not return to warehouse jobs ever again. Laboe economists say that this is creating a new challenge for retailers to fill crucial jobs like loading and unloading trucks, picking, delivering orders and such. The workers' shortage could also affect the retailers' performance during the holiday season in addition to other issues like with supply chain hiccups, delays in deliveries and out-of-stock products.
