Supplement to Empire Survey -In the current survey, 27 percent of respondents indicated that they
expected their workforce to increase over the next twelve months, while 19 percent predicted declines in the total number of workers. This balance is considerably less positive than in last January’s survey— when 51 percent had predicted increases and just 9 percent had anticipated decreases—and also less positive than in the 2011 surveys. Expectations in the current survey were fairly similar for larger establishments (150 or more employees) and smaller establishments.
