OCEAN CITY, N.J. — Jersey Shore businesses are crunching the numbers to see if they will have enough summer workers to stay open all season. The war in Ukraine is throwing a wrench into the calculations.As summer slowly approaches, businesses and amusement parks are scrambling to fill seasonal positions.“We are trying to compete with everybody, everyone’s looking for the same workers, whether it’s local or the J-1 Visa kids,” Hartley said.
“We didn’t have any kids coming from Ukraine who were scheduled to come over,” Hartley said. “We had a few Russian kids that were in our portal, but it sounds like they will not be able to come for obvious reasons.”Hartley says they are waiting to see if other students from Europe will be able to make it.
