Flexible Work App Helps Baltimore Businesses Meet Customer Demand as Travel Season Begins

SAN FRANCISCO, April 12, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Instawork, the leading platform for connecting businesses with skilled workers, announced today the platform's availability to local businesses in Baltimore. This announcement comes as a recent study found that 67% of hospitality businesses reported not having enough staff to meet demand.

Baltimore businesses are anticipating a surge in customers as tourism is expected to rebound after a tumultuous two years. On average, more than 26 million travelers visit Baltimore each year, which can bring over $11 billion in spending to the state.
