BANGKOK, THAILAND - Media OutReach - 16 February 2021 - Professional recruitment services Michael Page Thailand launched the Talent Trends 2021 Report, with a keen eye on the Thai job market. While hiring activities dipped 37% in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, optimism is starting to show, with 33% of companies in Thailand looking to increase their headcounts and 32% maintaining status quo in 2021.

 

Kristoffer Paludan, Regional Director of Michael Page Thailand says, "Like other markets in the region, Thailand's technology sector stayed afloat and resilient, particularly for e-commerce and other internet-based businesses. Food production, too, proved to be a bright spot, which in turn carried other associated industries, such as chemical, agriculture, as well as agritech."

 

In view of the economic demands, the sectors earmarked for highest hiring activity are industrial/manufacturing, fast moving consumer goods (FMCG), technology & telecommunications, healthcare/pharmaceutical as well as retail.

Is this supposed to be good news or bad news?

 

Feels like bad news trying to appear positive, but failing...

They missed the percentage that lost their jobs during 2020. Only present that hiring activities dipped. If they show the percentage of lost jobs during 2020, that might explain why they need to re-hire in 2021. In other word status quo, but the reality says it´s still minus. ????
