Shop Stats: Why Is There a Tech Shortage & What Are the Solutions?
Across the industry, the technician shortage remains one of the most pressing obstacles for shop owners and managers, and it isn’t expected to go away any time soon.
In fact, in a recent survey carried out by OEC, half of all shops said they anticipate it getting worse over the next five years. But here's what's interesting: 70% of surveyed shops still report retaining their technicians well or very well. So what are they doing differently? We break down the strategies these shops are using to retain their best techs in our latest blog!
