Summary
Hong Kong’s net employment outlook jumped to 14% for the fourth quarter, marking a sharp rebound in employers’ hiring sentiment after the previous quarter’s slump.
ManpowerGroup said the turnaround reflected a better economic environment and stronger growth, which lifted confidence among companies planning to add staff.
The survey also showed fewer employers expect to cut jobs, helping push the outlook higher under a measure that subtracts planned reductions from planned increases in headcount.
