The results of a survey released Tuesday by a major labor and employment law firm finds that optimism on hiring has dipped in the past 12 months, but most companies still plan to recruit new full-time workers in the coming year. The poll of 400 human resources professionals, C-suite executives and in-house counselors also finds a huge increase in the number of those who expect President Barack Obama to make immigration reform a high priority, and that implementing wellness programs was the top action taken in response to health care reform.
Littler Mendelson’s 2013 Executive Employer Survey reports that 60% of companies say they will hire more workers, either cautiously or aggressively, in the next year.
