From the Bureau
Preliminary figures indicate that in the first quarter of 2001, there were 1,664 mass layoff actions by employers that resulted in the separation of 305,227 workers from their jobs for more than 30 days.
Layoffs due to internal company restructuring accounted for 24 percent of events and resulted in 100,943 separations, the highest first quarter on record. The completion of seasonal work accounted for 24 percent of all events and resulted in 69,694 separations, the lowest first quarter on record. Permanent closure of worksites occurred in 16 percent of all events and affected 78,838 workers, up from 44,472 workers in the first quarter of 2000, and were concentrated in general merchandise stores.
New Combinations
E-Cruiter.com has entered into an agreement to acquire OMNIpartners Inc., a Florida-based recruitment research firm delivering executive and professional search services.
Memory Blanks
Appearing in the June issue of Nature Neuroscience and reported in The Washington Post, a new study finds that chronic jet lag causes the structures in right temporal lobe of the brain to shrink and impairs mental functions, including memory. Although the study was conducted on flight attendants, the findings could have broader implications for the workforce, such as frequent fliers, shift workers, and those experiencing high degrees of stress in their lives.
Finding Talent Isn't Any Easier
HBS presents a new paradigm of solutions, such as creating a strong leadership core, and relying on a large, fluid, and flexible talent pool to get the work done.
