The Perfect Labor Storm
Watch and listen to Ira S Wolfe, author of the Perfect Labor Storm.

All workforce trends indicate future employee shortages will not blow over for decades.

The Perfect Labor Storm has no industry or geographic boundaries. From plumbers to dental hygienists to teachers to pilots to welders, virtually every industry at nearly every level is affected by shortages of workers with the right skills and attitudes to do all the jobs.

Wolfe speaks to the PA Chamber about "who will be affected by skilled workers shortages." (1:02)

For the first time in record history, the 55 and older population is growing faster than the available workforce. (2:28)
