Will the Housing Slowdown and Credit Crunch Affect the Overall Economy?
Today we evaluate the health of the labor economy in the face of the sub prime mortgage credit crisis, and declining housing market. While fantasy football may hinder worker productivity, companies that allow their employees to participate in fantasy leagues reap multiple benefits.
HireStrategy's Paul Villella tells USA Today how the slowdown in the housing market and the credit crunch are affecting the staffing industry. Plus we learn how hackers placed fraudulent ads on popular job boards which resulted in large-scale online identity thefts. They may be hard to imagine now, but a world of fascinating new jobs will be created in the future.
