McHenry area employers anticipate a slowdown in hiring activity during the coming three months, (July, August, September), from the levels of one year ago, according to a quarterly survey of McHenry employers conducted by Manpower, the world's largest temporary help service. Chuck Bartels, owner of Manpower's McHenry office, said, "Manpower's survey found that fewer employers here have plans to increase employment during the coming months than did a year ago, although few are considering cutbacks. Overall, 27 percent of the employers surveyed project hiring plans while 3 percent are considering cutbacks and 70 percent anticipate no change," Bartels said. In a similar survey con­ ducted by Manpower one year ago, 43 percent of the em­ ployers forecast hiring plans, 3 percent were considering reductions and 54 percent anticipated no change.

All other areas of the local economy expect generally stable employment levels. Nationally, strong evidence of an impending drop in em­ ployment growth, a slowdown in the hiring pace, is indicated. Overall, 29 percent of the employers polled plan in­ creased employment during the third quarter, down from the 34* percent with similar plans of one year ago. Another 7 percent jfijGan decreased em­ ployment,* up slightly from 6 percent of brie year ago, while 61 percent expect no changes in current levels, up from 57 percent of last year. Three percent of those questioned in each survey were unsure of their plans. The slowdown in the hiring paee, coming traditionally at at time of clear gains in hiring, is indicated in all regions of the country and all sectors of the economy. The latest survey results report" the first reductions in hiring ex­ pectations recorded in several years. The slowdown, however, was expected; it follows 13 consecutive quarters of dramatically increased em­ ployment. More than 6,000,000 workers were added to U.S. payrolls in the last two years alone. The hiring slowdown in this quarter's expectations is most evident in the Northeast and Midwest, with lesser declines expected in the West and South. The slowdown is indicated from reports of eight of the ten economic sectors included in the survey. Only in the mining and public administration sectors are current hiring expectations above the levels of one year ago. Trades Hit Hardest The slowdwn is most severely indicated by employers in the wholesale-retail and con­ struction trades. Of the con­ struction employers surveyed, 42 percent expect increases during the coming months, down from the 51 percent of one ydar ago. Another 7 percent anticipate declines, up from 5 percent in 1978, while 48 per­ cent plan no changes, above the 41 percent of last year. Three percent of those polled in each survey were unsure of their plans. Among wholesale-retail merchants, 25 percent expect to increase employment during the coming months, down from the 33 percent of one year ago. Current figures indicate 8 percent plan reductions, 63 percent no changes and 4 percent are uncertain. In 1978, 5 percent planned decreases, 59 percent no changes, and 3 percent were unsure.
