☆ A Crisis Over Child Care Is Holding Back Companies and Blue-Collar Workers
  + stars: | 2023-05-09 | by ( Te-Ping Chen | Photographs Wes Frazer For The Wall Street Journal | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
More companies that rely on hourly shift workers are trying to fix the child-care needs of their employees by providing it themselves. So far, few have cracked the code. Working against these companies is a lack of care, especially in rural areas where many manufacturers and other blue-collar employers operate, some companies say. Affordability, even with employer subsidies, is often a hurdle. So is providing care for parents who work nights or frequently changing shifts.

☆ That Plum Job Listing May Just Be a Ghost

A mystery permeates the job market: You apply for a job and hear nothing, but the ad stays online for months. Not all job ads are attached to actual jobs, it turns out. The labor market remains robust, with 10.8 million job openings in January, according to the Labor Department. At the same time, companies are feeling budgetary strains and some are pulling back on hiring. Though businesses are keeping job postings up, many roles aren’t being filled, recruiters say.

☆ More Companies Start to Offer Daycare at Work
  + stars: | 2023-03-09 | by ( Te-Ping Chen | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Many companies that provide child care say it helps them recruit working parents. On-site daycare is a rarity in American workplaces, but new government incentives and companies eager to attract and retain talent could soon make that benefit more common. The Biden administration last week outlined a novel proviso in its $53 billion plan to revitalize the U.S. semiconductor industry. Chip makers seeking manufacturing subsidies under the Chips Act are expected to ensure employees have access to affordable, quality child care. It didn’t spell out how companies should provide or pay for the care, but the “commitment will be essential to getting people—especially women—into the workforce,” the Commerce Department said.

Adam Grant wants you to be less scared. A professor of organizational psychology at the Wharton School of Business and author of the bestselling “Think Again: The Power of Knowing What You Don’t Know,” Prof. Grant has spent his career researching how people work, what motivates them, and the pursuit of personal and professional happiness. Three years after Covid-19 hit, creating a vast global experiment in how work gets done, Prof. Grant says that some leaders are using this moment to figure out how to create happier, more productive workplaces. Others, he argues, are shrinking from change, and risk being left behind.
☆ Tech Layoffs Hit H1B Visa Workers Hard
  + stars: | 2023-02-10 | by ( Te-Ping Chen | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
When she lost her job at Google last month, Jingjing Tan started worrying about her dog, an energetic, 75-pound German shepherd. As a foreign worker living in the U.S. on a temporary work visa, if she couldn’t find a job within 60 days, she feared she might have to return to her home country, China. In big Chinese cities, where tech jobs are, keeping large dogs as pets often isn’t allowed.
☆ When the Layoff Is an Email, It’s Nothing Personal

At first, Jeremy Joslin thought the email announcing his layoff was a phishing attempt. It was 5:30 a.m. in California when he saw it, and with so many technology job cuts afoot, the Google software engineer thought a scammer was trying to capitalize on the news. The message, sent to his personal inbox, directed him to a website for newly laid-off Google employees and told him to set up an account. He went to check his work email and found he was locked out. The news was real: Mr. Joslin, a 20-year company veteran, had been laid off with a template email, one of roughly 12,000 workers Google’s parent, Alphabet , said this month it was letting go.
