July 2021 – Wages, Jobs, Going Back to Work

For those who think that “workplaces and wages will just return to normal” there is a reckoning on the horizon. Workers have awakened to their value, and options. Local governments and other employers who don’t adapt will suffer.

One sign is a recent LinkedIn post from a member county “advertising” that they offer health care benefits for as low as $65/month for employees. This was posted without a specific job.
