WATFORD, England — When Zara Asamoah graduated early in the coronavirus pandemic, she had no fixed abode and her chances of finding work looked remote.

In Britain, the problems are exacerbated by a drop in EU workers after the country left the European Union. Vacancies are the highest on record. As a result, organizations that work with people employers were long wary of, including homeless people as well as other typically marginalized groups such as ex-offenders, say more opportunities are opening up.estimates interest from employers in its services has tripled since the start of the pandemic.

Sonali Punhani, chief UK economist at Credit Suisse, said the problem was currently even more acute in the United States, where emergency welfare payments have sidelined many workers.“Workers will come back over this year but I don’t think participation will come back to pre-pandemic levels,” Ms. Punhani said.

Ms. Asamoah stuck to her filmmaking course at university despite the upheaval. After graduating in 2020, she was struggling again to find somewhere to stay when her local council put her in touch with Beam.
