Visier examined data covering 2.4 million employees at 142 companies around the world. In an analysis shared exclusively with Axios, it found about 5.3% of laid-off employees end up being rehired by their former employer. While that rate has been relatively stable since 2018, it has ticked up, Derler says. It's hard to tell what is driving the recent uptick, since the data is backward looking, she notes. Still, rehiring indicates a "larger planning problem" for executives. submitted by /u/axios [link] [comments]
