Labor shortages have been popping up across the country, and now here in Northeast Kansas. With COVID-19 vaccines being widely available and more people feeling comfortable dining out, Ryan Cavanaugh, one of the co-owners at the Brew Bank in Topeka is looking to hire more summer workers. “The important part about now is getting staff in and trained before summer really takes off,” Cavanaugh said. The Kansas Department of Labor reported 3.7% unemployment for March last month. Cavanaugh said he is having trouble finding people to hire. Multiple other restaurants in Topeka also reported having employment issues.
