Get set for 2010, employment predictions from the CIPD.
It appears that 2010 is going to be the year for recovery. Things are predicted to pick up during the first half of this year and according to the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) unemployment will peak in the summer and then fall by 250,000 in the final 2 quarters. Good signs.
The CIPD also predicts that 40% of those good people you’ve retained throughout the downturn will be looking to move as the recruitment market picks up, so remember to stay on top of your staff retention, keep employees well rewarded, interested and challenged.
