- 89% reported that clients have had to increase wage rates yet 81% said that quality was down on 2020
- 91% have had to invest more money and resources into sourcing workers but only 37% have been able to pass on these increased costs
- 57% are consolidating their client base and choosing carefully who to supply
- 88% said that the labour shortages were having a significant or major impact on their business and 12% saying they may not survive
