D-MTEC Media Update – Labour market reacts to easing with delay

D-MTEC experts engage with issues that affect society, the economy and business. The D-MTEC Media Update provides links to recent articles, interviews and commentary. The unemployment rate in the hospitality industry is 7%. At the same time, many restaurants complain that they can hardly find enough staff. Daniel Kopp, labour specialist at the KOF Swiss Economic Institute, says this is because the labour market needs time to adjust to the rise in demand after the sudden easing of lockdown measures.
