Despite companies asking workers to work from home due to the omicron strain, hiring is projected to have been strong and broad-based in December.
Some say omicron is not threatening business as much as media hypes.
According to Dow Jones, economists expect 422,000 new jobs in December, up from 210,000 in November. The unemployment rate is predicted to drop to 4.1 percent, down a tenth of a percentage point.
"Anybody can get a job who wants one. We said that in the dot-com times, and it was nothing like this..." Tom Gimbel, CEO of Chicago-based LaSalle Network.(More)

The US Labor Department reported today that payrolls in November were up by just 210,000, far below the 550,000 jobs forecast.
The job growth drop comes prior to the discovery of the newly identified omicron variant of COVID, which will likely slow the global economy's recovery. It's still not clear just how dangerous omicron is, and whether it is capable of causing more severe illness. Preliminary findings show an increased risk of reinfection.
Public health officials have urged caution against panic.(More)
