Canadian companies are still struggling to find workers — and they think it’s only going to get worse from here.

To attract applicants, some employers have resorted to offering higher pay. But it’s not having the effect they hoped and turnover remains high.

And they are pointing the finger at government benefits for keeping people who do have needed skills sitting out of the workforce.
