Another really useful "study" /Very helpful Data

Posted by Sandra on
Hello Everyone,



I am continually inundated with HR related articles and "studies" at work, without even looking very far. Here is another one for 2009. Parts of it just look like data that we've been told for the past 25 years. I mean isn't accountant/computer programmer etc... always among the best jobs???? And do we need a study to let us know that "trash collector" is among the worst jobs? Anyway, enjoy the list.
