Hays places 240,000 people into temporary jobs in a typical year
(Picture: Hays )The UK’s tight labour market helped FTSE 250 recruitment consultant Hays report record quarterly income today, although it also pointed to signs of a jobs market slowdown.
Fee income at the company -- which places around 240,000 people into temporary jobs in a typical year -- rose 15% in the 12 weeks to the end of September. It was also helped by the weaker pound, which flatters fees charged abroad and translated into sterling.
