European employers expect upswing

Published: 17 December 2003 y., Wednesday
Norwegian employees are the most positive in Europe when it comes to increased employment next year. According to Manpower’s international labor market survey, 10 percent of Norwegian employers expect an increase of employment next year, an increase of 4 percent points since last survey. The survey indicates that Norwegian employers are the most optimistic in Europe, closely followed by Spain and Great Britain at 9 percent. German employers expect a downswing of 14 percent, while Swedish numbers indicate a weak decrease in employment. “After a period which has been characterized by much insecurity and negative signals, it’s very nice to see that Norwegian employers are the most optimistic in Europe in connection to the belief of increased employment,” said Terje Nygaard, group CEO in Manpower Norway in a statement.
