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.
