The employment outlook in Taiwan for the second quarter of the year is one of the strongest in the world due to the country’s success in combating COVID-19, according to the latest survey released Tuesday by human resources advisory firm ManpowerGroup.
After seasonal adjustments, Taiwan’s net hiring outlook index for the April-June period was 24 percent, up 1 percentage point from a quarter earlier and down 1 percentage point from a year earlier, the latest ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook Survey found.
The survey, which reflects hiring confidence among employers, calculates the net hiring index after seasonal adjustments by subtracting the percentage of employers anticipating a decline in the size of their workforce from the percentage expecting an increase.
