Planned Layoffs Rise Again in the U.S.
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The number of planned layoffs in the United States rose for the second month in a row in May, with the retail sector registering the highest number of job cuts, according to a report on Tuesday.
Outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas Inc., said planned job cuts rose by 1.6 percent to 73,368 in May compared with 72,184 in April.
But the report showed monthly job cuts in May this year were 6.9 percent above those in May 2003, making this the first month since December that has seen a year-on-year increase.
