With the current economic situation, the working class are facing a cost of living crisis.

Attempting to keep pace with the inflation of food, fuel, education, interest rates, rent, and mortgages is no easy task for the common man. Hence, working professionals are seeking better-paying jobs or are requesting salary increments in the midst of an economic turmoil.

Currently, it’s a tough market for job seekers. With the recession around the corner, employers are looking to cut costs and recruit on a budget.

However, that doesn’t excuse underpaying OR overworking skilled employees to level with company budgets.
