[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The covid money sent out by the government meant fewer workers for meat packing (chicken processing.) In months before covid hit chicken processors working in poultry factories in Sussex County Delaware, the eastern shore of Maryland and the eastern shore of Virginia were paid starting rates of $13 per hour. Due to the covid funds sent out and double unemployment funds during covid the chicken processors struggled to get workers. The starting rates of pay in these regions for chicken processing are now $18 - $20 per hour. The rate of pay jumps to employ workers to process the chicken that you eat significantly affects the price of chicken for sale.[/quote] Have they seen the workers come back? I hope so. [/quote]
