Subject: RE: Labor ShortageCheck out the ASCP wage and vacancy survey: http://www.ascp.org/bor/center/SR_Mar01.pdfAlso, look through Advance magzine (http://www.advanceweb.com/sitemap.html#laboratory) to see the histolotech ads - many are giving anywhere from 2K - 5K sign-on bonuses and even moving expenses. That alone shows the desperation many places feel in recruiting.T im MorkenCDC, Atlanta-----

Subject: Labor ShortageGreetings,I have been asked by my lab manager to get as much information as possible on the labor market shortage of histotechs.. He needs this to establish a histotech position as "hard to fill. With this info, it would give us greater flexibility in our salary scale.If I could get feedback on this, it would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance for your response and have a great day!Barbara A.
