The ManPower Group's international survey, which also examined Hungary, revealed that the recruitment of skilled labor on the Hungarian labor market is returning together with the resumption of the economy.

From the third quarter, the majority of Hungarian companies would rather expand than reduce their workforce, which is expected to have a favorable effect on salaries as well.
The ManPower Group survey reveals that 84 percent of economic operators do not plan to change the number of employees. And only four percent of them are considering layoffs, while twelve percent want to expand the team.

The largest increase in staff is expected in the tourism and hospitality sector - where an average increase of 17 percent is planned - as this area suffered the greatest damage as a result of the epidemic.

Moreover, the intention to recruit is above average - about 11 percent - in wholesale and retail trade, and in the field of financial and business services. A significant decline is expected in the field of production, but since it is particularly difficult to find suitable new employees in the areas of production, logistics and IT, earnings are expected to increase in order to attract skilled labor.

Although the epidemic has created a new, more comfortable form of working from home, the majority of employers, 82 percent, would return to working at the workplace, due to the increase in efficiency.
