Hahahahahahaha...

There is a big difference between temporary workers and part time workers. This job report deals wit part time employees hired. This has nothing to do with temps!!!

For example, people are considered employed if they did any work at all for pay or profit during the survey reference week.

Sometimes I have to just chuckle at some of the "facts" thrown around. If there were actually "added expenses" associated with temporary labor as opposed to direct hire, then why would any business- especially Fortune 500 companies- increasingly hire temporary workers? With accounting like that it's no wonder successful companies are considered "dead in the water" by a select few. lol $LTNC
