U.S. Companies Hiring Seasonal Workers

According to a Reuters report, U.S. companies, including Target, Macy’s, and UPS, are planning to hire thousands of seasonal workers ahead of the crucial holiday season.

However, retailers are expected to add fewer seasonal jobs this year than last due to a softer labor market and tighter consumer spending, as forecasted by Challenger, Gray & Christmas.
