Twenty-Six Percent of Employers Will Increase Hiring

That’s right! Twenty-six percent (26%) of employers expect to increase hiring activity this quarter (July-September). That’s what Manpower’s Q3/200 Employment Outlook Survey revealed. Released today, the report also revealed that fifty-eight percent (58%) of employers expect no change in hiring activity, while only 10% expect a decrease in hiring activity.

But all sectors are not equal. Employers in the Non-Durable Goods Manufacturing, Transportation/Public Utilities, Wholesale/Retail Trade, Finance/Insurance/Real Estate and Education sectors foresee a decrease in hiring in Q3. Employers in the Construction, Durable Goods, Services and Public Administration sectors expect no change over Q2. Only employers in the Mining sector expect to increase hiring this quarter.

Employers in the West were the least optimistic about Q3 hiring conditions; Employers in the South were most optimistic.
