Abstract

The Montague Consult International Industry Sector Hiring Comparison Report is a

comprehensive statistical analysis report of the hiring intentions from nine key industry

sectors, namely Agriculture, Community & Social, Construction, Finance & Business Services,

Hotels & Retail, Manufacturing, Mining, Transport & Communication and Utilities. The

reports have been compiled from analysing information gained from the Manpower Global

Employment Outlook Survey, the Antal International Global Snapshot and information from

various international Governmental Offices in relation to the economic performance. The

figures shown are representative of more than 2,500 employers surveyed globally, where

each percentage point is assigned in-line with the employer’s intention to or consideration

to hire within that quarter period. Averages are based upon the percentage points gained

and divided by a given period i.e. quarter or year or by the number of Countries for averages

for global regions i.e. Americas, Asia Pacific or EMEA.

The reports will be available in two formats, the first will be the International Comparison

broken down by global regions namely Americas, Asia Pacific and EMEA. The second will be

a Country Specific report which will cover 42-Countries. Both will contain information

broken down by Industry Sector, by Year and by Quarter together with a full analysis report

in each case and a analytical forecast of the hiring intentions for that specific County and

Sector. The reports will be updated 4-times per year (Quarterly) which will be included

within the annual subscription fee.

Conclusion 60 UK Hiring Patterns Overview by Sector The overview of

the UK Hiring Patterns shows that of all Industry Sectors, the Utilities

Sector performed the strongest with an average score of 10% between

the periods of Quarter 4 2006 and Quarter 4 2012.

We have analysed a total of nine sectors throughout the UK and over

the outlined period above, the average

performance levels throughout the period has

resulted in the following sectors scoring highest to lowest: Utilities 10%

Hotels & Retail 9% Mining 7% Community & Social 3% Transport &

Communication 2% Agriculture 1% Manufacturing 0. 16% and Finance

& Business Services 0. 04% Construction -2% Agriculture As outlined

above, the Agriculture Sector has underperformed on average

throughout the period of Quarter 4 2006 and Quarter 4 2012 scoring an

average of 1%.

The Agriculture Sector throughout this period outperformed the Community & Social Sector

by 2%, the Construction Sector by 1%, the Finance & Business Services Sector by 5%, the

Manufacturing Sector by 2%, the Transport & Communication Sector by 6% and the Utilities

Sector by 5%.

Yet, surprisingly this Sector managed to outperform the Transport &

Communication Sector, Agriculture Sector, Manufacturing Sector,

Finance & Business Services Sector and the Construction Sector with

an average score basis throughout this period scoring on average 3%.

However, the Construction Sector has also managed to hit a low of -

23% in Quarter 1 2009 resulting in the sector coming in last place

with the next lowest performer managing to remain some 15% ahead

of the Construction Sector scoring a -8% from the Finance & Business

Services Sector.

Hotels & Retail The Hotels & Retail Sector was one of the strongest

performers throughout the period of Quarter 4 2006 and Quarter 4

2012, scoring an average score of 9% and achieving second place

overall and with just 4% difference between this sector and the top

performing sector the Mining Sector.

Throughout this period, the Manufacturing Sector managed to score a

high of 14% twice in Quarter 2 and Quarter 3 of 2007, outperforming

the Transport & Communication Sector, the Community & Social Sector

and the Agriculture Sector within the same periods.

Further down the list but not far behind the Community & Social

Sector is the Manufacturing Sector with an average score of 2. 51%

while the Agriculture managed a respectful 1.33% which although

low, has managed to outperform the Transport & Communication

Sector who managed to gain an average score of 0. 84% and the

Finance & Business Services Sector with an average score of 0. 49%.

In Quarter 1, the sector started the year with a score of 0% and

although it managed to briefly fight back with a respectful score of

9% in Quarter 3, this was never going to last and the sector ended

the year in Quarter 4 with a score of -2% as the recession started to

tighten its grip.

However, the jubilations were short lived as we entered Quarter 3

and this sector managed a score of 2% which was further declined

over Quarter 3 and Quarter 4 where the sector achieved a score of

0% in each quarter.

Data Graph Chapter Three UK Hiring Patterns by Sector UK Hiring

Plans by Sector Agriculture The Agriculture Sector has started its

performance throughout the period of Quarter 4 2006 through to

4


Quarter 4 2012 reasonably strong scoring an average score of 5% in 2007 but unfortunately

not managing to outperform any of the other sectors in the same period.

Although, the later result is low, it is surprisingly high in comparison to some of the other

sectors which it managed to outperform such as the Construction Sector, the Finance &

Business Services Sector, the Transport & Communication Sector, the Agriculture Sector and

the Manufacturing Sector retrospectively.

The lowest performer was found to be the Agriculture Sector with

an average score of 5% which has resulted in this sector being

outperformed by the Manufacturing Sector, Finance & Business

Service Sector and the Construction Sector which the Agriculture

Sector managed to outperform in the overall comparison outlined

above.

In Quarter 1 this sector achieved a score of 11% and although we

see a reduction in this sector over the year, the sector still ended

the year at 2% which was a great result all things considered and

enabled the sector to achieve an average score of 7%.

This sector ended the year in another dip in the final quarter with a score of 0% resulting in

this sector achieving an average score of 8% which still enabled the sector gaining a

respectful score for the year.

There was further evidence of a growth period when the sector achieved

a score of 4% in Quarter 3 before retracting again in Quarter 4 with a

final score of -4% leveraging an average score for 2010 of -1% which

resulted in the sector finding itself in the middle of the table at the end

of the year.

The sector ended 2011 in Quarter 4 with a slightly retracting score of 0.

07%, this resulted in the sector achieving an overall average hiring

performance score of 0. 1% which in a year on year comparison sees the

sector suffer a significant 7. 9% decline.
