In the logistics company PEC indicated that the demand for logistics workers for the year became lower by 5-15%. We are talking about vacancies in the transportation and logistics industry, including warehouse employees.
Experts believe that this may lead to a decrease in the salaries of current employees of the industry and reduce the attractiveness of the direction for potential job seekers. This was written by “Kommersant”.
Analysts explained that employers are no longer in need of warehouse employees due to the transition of consumers to the savings model and the slowdown in the growth of retail turnover.
In addition, demand for truck drivers has fallen sharply, down 47% year-over-year in March. We are talking about workers with license categories C and E.
The need for the former fell by 42%, for the latter - by 53%.
