Report: 40% of companies to hire contract or temp employees

Report: 40% of companies to hire contract or temp employees

There are signs that the current recession could end soon in the U.S., which means employers may be considering their hiring strategy for when the economy turns around.

According to the Employment Dynamics and Growth Expectations Report, compiled by Robert Half and CareerBuilder, technology jobs and customer service positions may be the first to be added when the job market improves.

Respondents to the survey said they see customer-facing roles as the most critical for their operations and said they are most likely to hire IT professionals, customer service workers and sales employees.

The report also reveals that in the next 12 months, 40 percent of companies say they plan to hire contract, temporary or project workers.

Meanwhile, more than half (53 percent) intend to add full-time staff members and 39 percent are looking to take on part-time workers within the same time period.

There is also some promising news regarding salaries over the next several months. Some 40 percent of hiring managers said they will use pay raises to retain top performers when the economy improves.

Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website
