Employee Recordkeeping Requirements
 
The reason businesses aren't hiring is because consumers aren't buying. Anything else is trivial.
 
Another REASON businesses AREN'T hiring...
OSHA!!! Bathroom rules..just ONE
Just one example of how rules and regulations discourage the hiring of new employees..

For example are you aware that PER OSHA "water closet" means a toilet facility maintained within a toilet room for the purpose of both defecation and urination and which is flushed with water.
Minimum number of Number of employees water closets
1 to 15.................................................... 1
16 to 35................................................... 2
36 to 55................................................... 3
56 to 80................................................... 4

OSHA requires if a business has 1 water closet for 15 workers
by hiring just ONE worker or 16 the business owner
must have 2 water closets!

More examples will be coming...

You can list all of the examples you want. Here are the truths.....

1) If nobody is buying your product then you won't hire employees.

2) If there's a buck to be made then nothing will stop someone from making it and that includes hiring.
 
Companies aren't hiring because the economy is too unstable. No one really knows what the future will bring in terms of regulations and taxes. Effectively, business is waiting until obama is voted out of office.

Weren't most of those jobs rehires after a strike?
 
Liberals will gladly sacrifice their livelihoods, family and friends to keep Obama's business killing strategies in place
 
I wouldn't be hiring either with this administration in there now.

They are HOSTILE towards business with regulations and wanting to raise taxes on EVERYONE who makes over $250,000 dollars which will INCLUDE all small businesses.
 
and he's out right now telling the world Americans are lazy when it comes to business..







what a fucking liar.

9% Unemployment is good?? Man, give me some of what ever you are drinking, it's gotta be the good stuff. :eusa_drool:

BTW, does anyone else think the increase in employment may be part time, seasonal work.
 
and he's out right now telling the world Americans are lazy when it comes to business..







what a fucking liar.

Sadly it's true. One look at the OWS protest sites should tell you that. It's not only that Americans are lazy when it comes to business, it's that liberals have a real hatred of those Americans who engage in business.

Employee Recordkeeping Requirements

How long has the above level of recordkeeping, or close to it, been in place?

Probably not, but that only shows that you are too dumb to ever succeed in business.

Businesses aren't hiring (if in fact they're not) because consumers aren't buying. All other reasons are trivial.

If there's a market for the products to be produced by new workers, new workers will be hired, regulations or no regulations, uncertainty or no uncertainty.

If there's no market for those products, new workers won't be hired, regulations or no regulations, uncertainty or no uncertainty.

The OP is nonsense, clearly.

Correct.

Businesses aren’t hiring because they don’t need to, given workers’ increased productivity.

Businesses aren’t hiring to maximize profits.

As conservatives here like to say: business owners aren’t running a charity, it’s not their ‘job’ to create jobs or offer employment.
