A growing number of businesses are converting temporary workers to permanent hires, announcing a warming job market.
"It’s definitely on the rise." says Rob Wilson, president of Employco Group, a Chicago-area staffing firm.
Temporary jobs jumped by 48, 000 in February to 2 million and are up 284, 000 since September.the government said Friday. That’s a good sign: Employers typically hire temporary workers before beefing up permanent staff.
Unlike in previous economic recoveries, temporary spots so far have been slow to proceed to more full-time positions. While layoffs have slowed substantially, economists say businesses are hesitating to hire permanent employees until the recovery is firm. Unemployment remains near 10%.
In a normal economy, one of three temporary workers is made full time. That ratio plunged to well under 10% in the recession, says Jonas Prising, head of Manpower’s Americas division.
He says his firm has seen just a small increase in temp-to-permanent hiring. "It’s nowhere near... a normal job market, " he says.
But Wilson says about 30% of the temporary workers placed by Employco’s Carlisle Staffing unit have become permanent hires in recent months. That’s up from 2% in the downturn.
Top staffing firm Adecco has seen a 50% rise recently in its temporary placements who go full time, says Tig Gilliam, CEO of Adecco North America. "There’s enough(employer)confidence."
About half the firms surveyed by the Society for Human Resource Management are boosting hiring in March, the most in about two years.
Temporary workers often cost employers less because they get no health insurance and other benefits. They also let businesses quickly respond to the market’s ups and downs. Experts say contract workers could make up a quarter of the workforce in a few years.
But the blossoming recovery means some temporary workers are staying on longer. Employers make them staffers to boost morale(士气)and avoid lawsuits that occur when employees who seem to be full time are treated like contract workers, Wilson says.
Capital Building Services, a janitorial(看门的)services firm in Lake Zurich, 111. .plans in the next few months to permanently hire two or three of t!: , : four temporary employees in its administrative offices.
"We have a feeling there’s a sustained recovery going on, " says CEO Mark Herbick."We really want to make them part of the team." [br] According to the passage.which of the following is NOT the reason temporary workers are preferred in recession?
选项
A、The employers needn’t pay insurance or other benefits.
B、The employers can pay them less for the same job.
C、The employment of temporary workers is much more flexible.
D、They can be converted into permanent ones when needed.
答案
B
解析
根据题干关键词temporary workers are preferred in recession定位到原文第十段,前两句提到:Temporary workers often cost employers less because they get no health insurance and other benefits.They also letbusinesses quickly respond to the market’s ups and downs.可知临时工会花费雇主较少的成本,因为他们没有医疗保险和其他福利,而且他们也能够使商家对于市场的兴衰迅速做出反应,B)项“相同的工作雇主可以少付钱给他们”原文没有提及,故不符。
