Many companies are already struggling to hire enough staff, now some of those new hires are getting cold feet or deciding not to turn up on the first day without telling their supervisors.

Southwest Airlines said that between 15 percent and 20 percent of new hires that accept offers never show up to work and security and facility-services provider Allied Universal said almost 15 percent of recruits never turn up on the first day.
