This new edition of TrendLine focuses on providing you with condensed, concise, and data-driven pieces designed to provide you with the insights you need to make decisions Fiscal cliff: Is it on the Solid Ground? 3 and take action. As always, we provide you with perceptive observations into the contingent Percent change in weekly Wages staffing industry. We continue to analyze contingent demand and supply to bring you predictive (year-over-year) 4 forecasts of wage trends and market status. Adoption of social media by Once again, we commence this month’s edition with the DCR National Temp Wage Index, enterprises: A double-edged sword 10 discussing company’s trend of engaging temporary workers for low-skilled positions. The second piece in TrendLine follows up on our article in December’s edition entitled “The Fiscal Applying Unstructured Data Cliff and its Impact on Contingent Hiring”. While our first article on the subject discussed the Analytics to Customer Feedback Data 12 potential impact due to the changes, this month’s piece focuses on the Fiscal Cliff legislation’s impact on the job market, and particularly on small businesses. We next look at changes in weekly wages, year-over year, concentrating first on geography, and then highlighting trends for temporary workers. We conclude this article with an overview at the national level, looking at tendencies in unemployment and industry contributions. Look out for our comprehensive graphs, providing you with visual insights into wage trends. We then shift our focus on the adoption of social media in companies, providing you with views in the rounds, pointing out both the positive and negative potential repercussions. Our concluding article is a continuation of our feature on unstructured data analysis, where we discuss a relevant application of text mining utilizing customer feedback data. “ “With cost savings, faster time-to-hire, access to top Ammu Warrier talent not locally available, Ammu Warrier, President and a better product delivered, 85 percent of small business report in the Elance Global Business Survey that hiring online offers a competitive advantage” ~Darrell Jones, Editor-in-Chief at Elance “ Trend Line: Contingent Worker Forecast and Supply Report. © DCR.

DCR National Temp
Wage Index Recruiters seem to feel that it might be beneficial to companies to hire batches of temporary workers to complete tasks requiring low-skill manpower, instead of employing a permanent pool of low-wage, low-skill employees. An example of this can be seen in the design industry, where rather than static creative departments, companies are outsourcing design and copy work to skilled freelancers. Apart from a few constraints, contingent workers serve a major portion of demand, which is flexibility in availability with minimal commitment for other benefits. “ “The number of temporary and contract workers employed by U.S. staffing firms on an average business day was 4.3% higher compared with the third quarter of 2011. This is the 11th consecutive quarter of year-to-year staffing industry job growth since the recession ended mid-2009.” ~American Staffing Association Trend Line: Contingent Worker Forecast and Supply Report. © DCR.

Fiscal cliff: Is
it on the Solid Ground? With the deficit of $4 trillion income taxes are going up, but only for the rich. However, payroll taxes were hiked for everyone. And government spending cuts kicked down the road has lead the nation and job market especially towards a uncertain, unclear future. Reluctance to add workers by the small business owner with less than 500 employees, which roughly constitute half of private sector employment, has become a worry. Many small business owners expressed concern about the immediate impact of the payroll tax increase, but they said it would take a while to understand how other aspects of the legislation would impact their bottom line. The most straightforward negative effect lies in the termination of the payroll-tax holiday that had reduced the employee’s share of Social Security tax from 6.2 to 4.2 percent of wages. While this isn’t specific to small businesses, the pattern is clear: Payroll-tax cuts stimulate job creation and payroll-tax increases discourage it. Joel Prakken of Macroeconomic Advisers estimated that the payroll-tax cut added 300,000 jobs to the U.S. economy. Therefore, doing away with the payroll-tax cap should eliminate 300,000 jobs. “As long as the federal government does not have a plan to reduce spending and address the deficit, small business owners are very concerned in very close future months that the plan that Congress proceeds with will include tax increases,” said Gregg Thompson, the state director for the National Federation of Independent Businesses Mary Brogan, spokesperson for the National Small Business Association, said the lingering national debt could have a chilling effect on growth as businesses hesitate to take on additional employees or debt. Brogan said the lowered tax threshold impacts a limited but important group of business owners – those who are more likely to expand and hire new employees. The limit creates a fairness issue for businesses that pass through income to owners. But there is some good news… The Fiscal Cliff legislation extends indefinitely the exclusion from wages for reimbursements of employer-provided educational assistance and amounts paid by an employer under a qualified adoption assistance program. Under Section 127 of the Internal Revenue Code, employers may reimburse an employee, tax-free, up to $4,260 for qualified tuition assistance, despite relevance to job. And under Code Section 137, employers may reimburse an employee tax-free up to $12,650 for expenses related to adoption of a child. The legislative compromise also includes a remedy for estate tax exception, originally scheduled to drop to $1 million and now remaining at $5.12 million. After reaching the $5.23 million threshold, the maximum tax rate will rise 5 percentage points to 40 percent. “Consumers, business-to-business transactions, I think everybody is going to tighten things up.” ~Mary Brogan, spokesperson for National Small Business Association Trend Line: Contingent Worker Forecast and Supply Report. © DCR.

Adoption of social
media by enterprises: A double-edged sword Innovation adoption has long been associated as a signal of market leadership and thought leadership. In almost all sectors, this is borne by firms wanting to maintain their market position, reduce risk, and to offset any competitive advantage to a prospecting challenger. Even an innovation unlikely to be used could be a deterrent to an alternate business model. Examples include blocking of automobiles using renewable fuel energy by firms deeply entrenched in conventional oil and gas energy; or squashing a patents to block use of innovation. It is in such light that one is intrigued by social media’s role, and firms sometimes having mixed feelings on adopting it. In this article, we attempt to unravel the intricacies of social media adoption by enterprises. While the study can be generalized to any firm, it is more relevant to companies with direct business-to-consumer dealing. Should your company have its own blog? Is a Facebook page connecting stakeholders needed? Is it a good idea to take on consumer complaints on twitter? How about a google hangout for your employees? Companies often end up incorrectly estimating the usefulness and risks of their decisions when it comes to social media usage. To leverage social media correctly and fully, there is a level of internal preparation required. This is especially so if senior management is not as familiar with social media. There is generally a need to balance contradictory views, knowledge levels, and risk appetites of all involved. Decisions to be Made A firm may need to decide firstly whether it is worth being on social media. One could have any of the possible reasons- to provide a platform to employees to connect, to allow customers to provide feedback, to have R&D teams obtain user inputs on beta models, to connect stakeholders, acquire customers or establish position as thought-leader or merely match up to competition’s presence. Many companies choose not to be there and this may be acceptable as strategy if consumer expectations from the industry and competitor’s actions permit it. Often this may mean also an opportunity for new challengers to alter status quo using social media effectively. In summary, surviving not being on social media platforms may be shortsighted and a strategy relevant and good for the short-term only. Once a decision to be on social media is taken, company needs to decide whether to moderate content or allow laissez faire. A company also has to decide on activity levels. We discuss these options and company strategies regarding social media activities in a follow-up article in the upcoming edition of TrendLine.

Adoption of social
media by enterprises: A double-edged sword ROI of Social Media Many enterprises rushed to embrace social media like any other innovation only to discover that it was an animal different from any innovation they had seen before. All social media is not good social media. Nor is more of social media always better. A firm opens itself up for scrutiny and may not be rightly positioned or equipped to handle the impact of social media. How does your firm assess it? We recommend a balanced assessment of both a long-term strategic view and operational returns in ROI. Another perspective on the question of to be or not to be on social media is that can you control customers, industry veterans and public in general from generating content, positive or negative about your firm. Also, can you ignore such content even if you choose to leave it without response? As possibly BP had to learn after a Deepwater Horizon, enterprises need to be ready for catastrophic events that may come unannounced. Such risk calculations may not be modeled into standard ROI templates. Yet another key decision variable not fully captured in ROI is the signaling importance of being avant garde in innovation adoption. A market leader or a customer-focused firm cannot ignore social media if competitors are prominent on those platforms. It is a prisoners’ dilemma as no firm can afford to be perceived as being left behind in adopting an innovation that is causing a paradigm shift in market dynamics as much as personal space of its customers. Perception is reality and the medium of communicating such perception, social media in this instance, cannot be ignored. “ In TrendLine next month, look out for our follow-up article on Social Media Strategy Options for Enterprises and a feature on Social Media Metrics and Measures.

Applying Unstructured Data
Analytics to Customer Feedback Data Spreadsheet or database driven analysis has been around for a long time, and last month in TrendLine we shared what we can do with textual data. Firms can collect and analyze huge amounts of data from the web for business insights using a combination of text mining for extracting unstructured data in combination with big data for analysis. This month we share another application, now from internal data sources of a company, that can trigger some thought and also spawn new applications. “Shallow methods work extremely well… except when they don’t. Language is replete with underlying structure.” ~Philip Resnik, University of Maryland One key source of textual information is the customer helpdesk. Many enterprises employ tens of thousands of call center employees to service customer for technical support, sales ordering, complaints and other needs. They capture a goldmine of customer insights that remain locked in transactions but never reach the higher value functions like product designers, SCM planners and sales teams. Even if it were to be available, the problem would be akin to looking for a needle in haystack, given the quality of such data. Customer feedback could be on a continuum from ridiculous to sublime and being textual it has to be read, understood, inferred and used. Furthermore, it has to be aggregated in a manner to tap wisdom of crowds, and not just individual. It is here that structured data mining can efficiently read and classify data based on structured data analysis algorithms. For example, a computer manufacturer when launching a new line of laptops, was keen to know how the product was received in market so that it could fine-tune future campaigns of promotion in other geographies. It had a launch with much fanfare, and trended on twitter too on the day of the launch. The volume of feedback exceeded the expectations due to a hyped promotion as also some unexpected problem with the microprocessor cooling in the product. What was remarkable about the analysis was the quick identification of top problems, top positives, and demographics of target market, that were quickly derived from unstructured data. The product team could latch onto some transparent, live feedback and guide the call center to proactively reach out to the customers even as they made changes to the product “ usage literature and design. “The role of NLP [Natural Language Processing] is not “understanding”. It’s helping people do useful things with language.” ~Philip Resnik, University of Maryland Trend Line: Contingent Worker Forecast and Supply Report. © DCR. All Rights Reserved - 12

Methodology The DCR Wage
Index is developed to assess the relative movements of temporary wage rates in the U.S. economy. The wage rates for temporary workers or contingent workforce are based on payments made by staffing firms to these workers based upon hours worked. Data collected from sources such as Bureau of Labor Standards (BLS) and other government sites as well as an internal pool of staffing companies and consultants, is aggregated and classified based on regions and skill categories, to arrive at an aggregate index. The baseline for the index is set at 100 for January 2007. Index value for a particular month indicates relative wages with the said baseline and is representative in terms of direction and scale of change. Five years of data has been included to observe seasonal patterns and distinguish seasonality from long-term wage movements. The data and the model has been further refined over last six months. DCR Wage Index combines the exhaustive data from BLS with practical and more recent developments and data from on-field consultants and clients, to provide timely near-term indications of trends and consistent long-term actionable and objective information. Source Data DCR Work Index uses multiple economic variables to ensure the robustness of its forecasts and cross-validation of trends. Key data sources and parameters of interest included and influencing the index are: Unemployment data Gross Domestic Product Prime rate of interest New and seasonal Job openings Non Form employment Job Opening All Export All Import Average Hourly Earnings of All Employees Total Private Aggregate consultant data on job market parameters References: “ http://www.newsobserver.com/2013/01/07/2586891/beyond-the-cliff-a-tricky-path.html#storylink=cpy http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/225433 http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/dsrv http://www.staffingindustry.com/row/Research-Publications/Research-Topics http://blog.adeccousa.com/what-the-rise-of-the-temp-workforce-means-for-hr-and-internal-recruiters/ http://www.bls.gov/news.release/laus.nr0.htm Trend Line: Contingent Worker Forecast and Supply Report. © DCR.
