A third of businesses are struggling to recruit staff as too few job seekers apply for positions, proof that the 'great resignation' phenomenon is also happening in Australia.
With unemployment at a 48-year low of 3.9 per cent, bosses aren't getting enough applicants when they advertise with job seekers now more interested in being able to work from home.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics on Thursday revealed the extent of the problem with 31 per cent of businesses surveyed by them in June struggling to find suitable staff.
