Downturn hitting Scottish jobs and businesses – BBC News

The downturn is continuing to impact on jobs and business prospects in Scotland, according to the latest data.

The starting salary for new recruits to full time jobs has fallen for the first time in more than a year.

Scotland’s labour market improved slightly last month, but latest figures on footfall at Scottish shops show the sharpest decline of any part of the UK.

The Scottish government said it was working to boost consumer and economic confidence.

The Bank of Scotland’s monthly report on jobs suggested a rise in permanent and temporary staff placements.
