As the economy improves, big employers say they’re most likely to add new personnel spending in the form of hiring. A recent survey by Robert Half Finance & Accounting shows 31 percent of senior executives plan to hire more staff when they see their bottom line improving.
Another 21 percent say they’re most likely to offer raises to current workers.
The survey involved interviews with 150 executives from large companies. Fifteen percent said their top priority will be increasing or reinstituting bonuses and 9 percent want to put more money into employee training.
