The Weekly Economic & Business Outlook—or WEBO—is an ASA resource that goes out to member email boxes every Tuesday morning. Every week, ASA researchers examine trends within the staffing industry, as well as developments within the broader economy, and then deliver succinct takeaways that can help drive strategic business decisions.

In the most recent edition, ASA analysts discussed the gap between the apparent stability of the U.S. economy and the drop in the number of temporary employees—as well as a slowdown in industry sales. They also took a sector-specific look at staffing employment and the factors that could contribute to a recovery for the industry.

The WEBO is a powerful and targeted data and analysis tool with features designed to deliver the data-driven intelligence you need to track trends and capitalize on opportunities.
