What Will Happen To Our Jobs?

Consumer barometer: jobs at risk – at Moneyweek.co.uk - the best of the week's international financial media.

Consumers feel less secure about their own employment prospects, and are more sceptical about the UK jobs market, than they were last month, according to the latest Consumer Barometer from Lloyds TSB Financial Markets.

A third (34 per cent) of consumers believe UK employment prospects are currently in worse shape than they were 12 months ago. This is an improvement from 40 per cent last month but still worse than the 28 per cent in March who thought employment would worsen. Whilst two in five people (40 per cent) also believe that the employment outlook for the UK as a whole is no worse than it was 12 months ago, this is up from the 33 per cent who felt that way in April.
