Employment Report Bodes Well for U.S. Office Market
4 Dec, 2009, New York
The latest employment report by the U.S. Labor Department shows the U.S. economy is
finally signaling a recovery, according to Ken McCarthy, Managing Director of Research Services
for global commercial real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield.
"Most critically for the office property market, employment in office-using industries
- including financial, professional business services and information - increased by 59,000
jobs in November, the third consecutive monthly increase following upward revisions in
September and October," said Mr. McCarthy. "There is a general consensus that
the recovery will see weak job growth, in line with what the economy experienced in 1991 and
2002, but there is also a strong argument for healthy job growth tied to the need for
businesses that cut employment levels significantly to now hire more quickly to meet rising
demand."
