The Hidden Cost of Unfilled Roles – It’s More Than You Think

Think Delayed Hiring Is Harmless? Think Again

It might seem like you’re saving money by delaying a hire—but in reality, every day without the right person costs your business more than you realise.

What It’s Really Costing You

🕓 Productivity Gaps
Critical tasks go unfinished, deadlines get missed, and your team picks up the slack.

💷 Lost Revenue
Customer service suffers. Sales targets aren’t hit. The bottom line takes a hit.

🔥 Team Burnout
Existing staff stretch to cover the gap. Morale and retention dip.

📉 Reputation Risk
Projects stall. Clients notice. Your brand suffers internally and externally.
