Swiss companies expect employment prospects to remain good in the first quarter of 2024 despite the difficult environment. Almost half of the companies surveyed by recruitment agency Manpower expect staff numbers to rise.
Specifically, 44% of companies stated that they expect the number of employees to increase. A further 41 percent expect no change and 13 percent see a decrease, as Manpower announced on Tuesday.
According to Manpower, this results in a forecast net employment outlook (NEO) of 33%. Although this figure is 6 percentage points lower than in the previous quarter, it is also 6 percentage points higher than in the first quarter of 2023.
