THE local employment outlook for the next three months is the brightest in nearly three years, according to ManpowerGroup.
Of the 670 Singapore employers that the US-based recruitment firm polled, 17 per cent plan to hire while 5 per cent intend to cut staff, yielding a net employment outlook of 12 per cent, after adjusting for seasonal variations. This is the highest since the fourth quarter of 2015.
