Labor shortage is a capital euphemism for "the labor market isn't completely saturated and we are starting to have to return some of the rewards of work to the workers as opposed to the capital side". Personally I wouldn't allow any low skill immigration (happy to import lower priced doctors, etc in areas where costs have gone insane) until the standard of living for the poor increases to a more reasonable level, it has shifted to be far more in favor of capitol over the past 50 years or so. In before the lump of labor folks wake up, low immigration can't simutainously explain why inflation is high (due to high wages) and also not cause lower wages when you increase it. Edit: made more clear, added context
