It has proven that it is not easy to entice workers into an industry that has been battered more than the most by the pandemic, fights over wearing masks and high rates of infection among workers. Willing retail workers are likely to earn larger paychecks and work fewer hours, while consumers may be greeted by less inventory and understaffed stores. Mark A. Cohen, director of retail studies at Columbia University’s business school said, "Folks looking to work in retail have typically had very little choice — it’s largely been driven by geography and availability of hours. Now they can pick and choose who’s got the highest, best benefits, bonuses and hourly rates. And as we’ve seen, the escalation has been striking."
