Employment outlook survey shows improvement
June 8th, 2010
There is continued bad news for employment in Wales as a recruitment survey shows employers expect a net reduction in payrolls over the next three months.
It is the eighth consecutive quarter in which employers in Wales have reported negative hiring intentions.
The trend, however, is upwards, with the net employment outlook at its most positive since 2008.
The Manpower Employment Outlook Survey, based on responses from more than 2,100 UK employers, shows how many employers in Wales plan to reduce head count levels during the next three months.
The figure is arrived at by subtracting the percentage of employers expecting to hire more staff from those expecting to reduce staff.
