Small Business Hiring Intentions Best Since January 2008

Seven in 10 owners say they would hire temporary, contract, or part-time workers

by Dennis Jacobe, Chief Economist

PRINCETON, NJ -- By 22% to 8%, more U.S. small-business owners expect to increase than decrease the total number of jobs at their company over the next 12 months, according to a new Wells Fargo/Gallup Small Business Index poll conducted Jan. 9-13, 2012. This 14-percentage-point advantage for expected job growth is the largest since the +15 of January 2008, suggesting small-business owners are more optimistic about hiring now than at any time in the past four years.
