MILWAUKEE, Sept. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Employers in the U.S. report the strongest hiring intentions globally for Q4 according to the latest ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) Employment Outlook Survey of 6,000 employers.
Hiring intentions strengthen by 23 and 34 percentage points from 3Q 2021 and 4Q 2020, respectively.
KEY FINDINGS
"This is a historic Q4 report as American employers seek to hire to meet a level of demand we haven't seen in decades that we anticipate will continue into 2022," said Becky Frankiewicz, President, ManpowerGroup North America. "Although headwinds including the Delta variant and talent shortages may impact how these intentions translate to jobs created, we are still in a worker's market. Businesses know they have to get creative to attract and retain the best skilled talent. There are more than 10m open jobs in our country and the most forward-thinking employers are building flexibility into roles traditionally seen as in-flexible, demonstrating how their purpose aligns to employee values and putting the health and wellbeing of their workforce above all."

ABOUT THE SURVEY
The Employment Outlook Survey – conducted in July 2021 – is the most comprehensive, forward-looking employment survey of its kind, used globally as a key economic indicator. The Net Employment Outlook is derived by taking the percentage of employers anticipating an increase in hiring activity and subtracting from this the percentage of employers expecting a decrease in hiring activity. Seasonal adjustments have been applied for countries and territories that have accumulated at least 17 quarters of data, Croatia being the exception. ManpowerGroup intends to add seasonal adjustments to the data for Croatia in the future, as more historical data is compiled.
SURVEY METHODOLOGY
The methodology used to collect the data for the Employment Outlook changed for 14 countries this quarter: Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Mexico Netherlands, Norway, Singapore, Spain, UK and U.S. Survey responses are now being collected online by Reputation Leaders. Respondents are members of double opt-in online panels and are incentivized to complete the survey. Infocorp carried out the survey via telephone with the remaining 29 countries. The question asked and the respondent profile remains unchanged. Size of organization and sector are standardized across all countries to allow international comparisons.
