New data from Gallup shows the polling firm’s “Job Creation Index,” which surveys workers on whether or not their employer is hiring, is at its highest level since the second half of 2008. Gallup’s numbers showed that “36% of workers nationwide saying their employers are hiring workers and expanding the size of their workforce, and 16% saying their employers are letting workers go and reducing the size of their workforce. This is similar to March, when 35% of workers reported workforce expansion at their place of work, while 17% reported workforce reduction.”
