Jobs feel the crunch

Credit crunch hits UK job growth

Paul Grant, Accountancy Age Jobs, 24 Apr 2008

The credit crunch is really starting to hit job growth in the UK, according to a new survey, and - surprise, surprise - the financial and business services sector is suffering the most.

The Manpower employment outlook survey of 2,100 employers across the country showed a severe decline in hiring confidence in the City and financial institutions, with employers reporting their weakest employment outlook in a decade.

Manpower added that a number of City employees have already started to make redundancies and more were expected in the coming months as companies reviewed their staffing requirements.

Time to make yourself invaluable.
