Employers are getting creative to attract people in a tight jobs market, offering a much broader range of non-monetary incentives to attract staff.

With the jobs market as tight as it has ever been, employers are offering a much broader range of non-monetary incentives – as well as paying big sign-on bonuses – to attract staff.released last week showed the number of occupations considered to have shortages of workers increased from 153 to 286 over the past year. There were 301,000 job vacancies advertised in August, up by 37 per cent compared to the same month last year.

Fintech company Finder allows employees to work from anywhere in the world for up to four weeks a year and employees are eligible to receive equity in the business. The reason for offering staff up to four weeks a year to work from anywhere in the world, subject to their managers’ approval, is retention, she says. Without it, some of the company’s employees could leave their job at Finder and go overseas to spend extended time with their family.

An interesting change in policy at my work too this week, those who travel can now pocket surplus travel money (only meals and incidentals) and only 7 days worth at a time. I have heard it both described as an attraction and retention issue and also as soft fraud. bizarro

What is their success rate though?

how about straight shifts and hourly pay?

Anything but paying an attractive salary.

Shouldn’t have discriminated against their loyal staff in the first place. 💉💉💉💉

Try a pay rise.

everything except cash… lol lame
