What Is a Chronic Vacancy Actually Costing Your Business?
An open seat rarely shows up as a line item. It shows up as overtime, missed shipments, an account that goes unmanaged, a supervisor or manager pulled off their own work to cover a gap, and a team that's stretched thin enough to start looking elsewhere. Most companies feel that cost long before they can name it.
- Every week a critical role sits open, someone else on your team is absorbing the slack — usually without being asked.
- A rushed hire to "just fill the seat" often costs more in turnover and retraining than the vacancy did.
- Without an outside team dedicated to the search, hiring competes with the rest of your job — and it usually loses.
