shrm_line_aug_2009

Here are the key findings:

  • Hiring expectations in August lag those from a year ago
  • There is some evidence that the job market is gradually improving
  • Wages and benefits packages for new workers continue to decline

Not the most positive report.  But, there are ‘hints’ of potential recovery.  Read the entire Report here.
