Arlington, Va. - A Bloomberg BNA quarterly survey of employers released this week reveals that employee turnover was remarkably flat in the second half of 2012, and separation rates for the full year suggest little or no overall change in worker departures. Job absence surged in late 2012, reversing a decline observed during the summer.

Arlington, Va. - With sequestration looming after Congress and the president stepped back from the fiscal cliff, job prospects remain in a holding pattern, according to 265 employers responding to Bloomberg BNA's latest survey on the employment outlook. Office/clerical candidates could see some improvement in job opportunities during the second quarter, but prospects for most other nonmanagement employees appear unlikely to break free of the sluggishness observed over the past two years. For the currently employed, the threat of job loss remains fairly low, with little appreciable change in reports of layoffs or imminent reductions in force.

In addition, 11 percent reported that they will sponsor programs or events to acknowledge Dr. King's life and achievements, regardless of whether they will give the day off.

Arlington, Va. - With Christmas and New Year's Day falling on Tuesdays in 2012-13, employers' year-end holiday calendars will be much kinder to workers than in the previous two years, according to Bloomberg BNA's survey of employers' year-end holiday plans. Almost three-fifths of the surveyed employers (58 percent) have scheduled at least three paid days off for the 2012-13 holiday season, compared with about two out of five establishments responding for 2011-12 (42 percent) and 2010-11 (36 percent), when the national holidays fell on the weekend. The Bloomberg BNA survey also suggests some recovery in holiday gifts, bonuses, and party-giving from levels observed around the end of the recession.

Arlington, Va. - The four-day Thanksgiving weekend remains a November tradition among most U.S. employers, although more than a third of surveyed establishments will require at least a few employees to report to work on the holiday, according to the latest Bloomberg BNA survey of year-end holiday practices. Nearly three out of four responding employers (73 percent) have scheduled both Thanksgiving Day (Nov. 22) and the following Friday (Nov. 23) as paid days off for all or most of the workforce this year, virtually unchanged from 2011 (72 percent) and 2010 (74 percent). Throughout the Bloomberg BNA survey's history, the two-day Thanksgiving holiday has proven mostly impervious to economic conditions.
