Employment expectations in the Australian IT and telecoms sectors are looking stronger for the June quarter, according to a new report released yesterday.
The Report Employment Expectations figures from recruitment firm Hudson surveyed more than 8,000 employers nationally and showed that 46.2% of IT employers plan to increase permanent staffing levels, compared to 7.4% who intend to reduce employee numbers, resulting in a net effect of 38.8%.
In the telco sector, 40.4% of employers plan to increase permanent staffing levels, compared to 18.4% who intend to reduce employee numbers, resulting in a net effect of 22.0%.
IT employers in NSW, QLD and WA recorded the highest levels of optimism, with the IT sector returning the highest level of employer sentiment across all sectors in NSW.
“The main driver behind the growth in the IT market is the overall increase in IT spending across the board as many organisations are now regarding technology as a key enabler of business growth,” said Martin Retschko, director of the IT&T Sector for Hudson
Among other findings:
· IT sector records third highest level of employment optimism out of all industry sectors surveyed
· 46.2% of IT employers to increase staff over June quarter
· Telco sector records 5.3% rise in employment expectations after steep decline in previous quarter
