As many as 600,000 people could lose their jobs in Britain next year, making 2009 the worst year for unemployment since 1991, personnel experts warned on Monday.
The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) said a widely-expected recession would bite hard in Britain next year and could push unemployment close to the three million mark before the economy begins to recover.
"By the end of 2009 the number of people unemployed and actively seeking work will have increased to 2.8 million, one million above the autumn 2008 figure," John Philpott, the CIPD's chief economist, said in its annual Barometer Report.

Goldman CEO, 6 others miss 2008 bonuses
Goldman Sachs Group Inc said on Sunday its Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein and six other top officials will not get bonuses for 2008.
Blankfein, Presidents and Co-Chief Operating Officers Jon Winkelried and Gary Cohn, Chief Financial Officer David Viniar, and three vice chairmen -- J. Michael Evans, Michael Sherwood and John Weinberg -- asked the board's compensation committee Sunday morning that they not receive a bonus, spokesman Lucas van Praag said.
The compensation committee met and agreed, Praag said.
The executives will only be eligible for a base salary of $600,000 each, the 'Wall Street Journal' reported.
Last year, Blankfein made $68.5 million, Winkelried and Cohn got $67.5 million, and Viniar got $57.5 million. The compensation of the other three was not disclosed.
New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo said Goldman had taken "an important step in the right direction."
Last month, Cuomo warned Goldman and eight other banks getting US government money in the first round of capital injections under the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program that using the funds for bonuses might break state law.
"This gesture by Goldman Sachs is appropriate and prudent and hopefully will help bring Wall Street to its senses," Cuomo said in a statement on Sunday. "We strongly encourage other banks to follow Goldman Sachs' step."
Goldman's move comes as the global credit crisis leads to big losses and erodes profit for banks and securities firms.
Banks worldwide have fired more than 150,000 people since the crunch began. Goldman recently fired 3,200 employees, or 10 per cent of its global workforce.
Goldman became a bank holding company regulated by the Federal Reserve in September, along with Morgan Stanley, after Lehman Brothers failed, Merrill Lynch agreed to be bought as financial markets went into turmoil.
On September 16, Goldman posted a 70 per cent drop in quarterly profit, its biggest earnings decline since going public in 1999, as the worst market slump in decades led to weaker-than-expected revenue.
Several analysts expect the company to post a fourth-quarter loss, which would be its first ever as a public company.
Its shares are down 69 per cent so far this year.

Citigroup to cut up to 50,000 jobs - CNBC
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Citigroup Inc plans to cut up to 50,000 jobs, CNBC television said on Monday, as souring economies and global credit conditions cause the U.S. bank with the farthest reach worldwide to retrench.
The cuts are on top of the roughly 23,000 jobs Citigroup has already slashed this year, and would leave the second-largest U.S. bank with about 300,000 jobs worldwide.
Cuts are expected to come from layoffs, the sale of units and attrition, CNBC said. Overall capital expenses may decline as much as 20 percent, and cuts are expected to be deep in investment banking, it said.
Citigroup did not respond to a request for comment.
According to the Associated Press, Chairman Sir Win Bischoff said Monday at a Dubai conference, "What all of us have done, and perhaps injudiciously, we've added a lot of people over ... this very benign period."
The cuts are Chief Executive Vikram Pandit's most dramatic move yet to restore profitability and bolster a sagging share price. Last week, Citigroup's stock fell into the single digits for the first time since Sanford "Sandy" Weill created the company in 1998 from the merger of Travelers Group Inc and Citicorp.
Pandit became chief executive last December and has faced much criticism from investors and others for failing to implement a workable turnaround plan for Citigroup.
The New York-based bank has lost more than $20 billion in the last year, hurt by bad bets on complex and risky debt, often tied to mortgages. Some analysts say the bank might not be profitable before 2010.
Pandit was holding a "town hall" meeting for employees Monday morning to discuss the bank's plans.
Shares of Citigroup have fallen 68 percent this year, leaving the bank with a market value of only $51.9 billion, barely twice the $25 billion of capital it received from the U.S. Treasury Department's bank bailout plan.
Citigroup was built principally by Weill, who ceded control to Pandit's predecessor, Charles Prince, in 2003.
Analysts believe Citigroup never invested enough in technology or to make the bank's parts work well together.
Its geographic diversity, including operations in more than 100 countries, is now also working against it as customers in such countries as Brazil, India and Mexico find it harder to keep up with their bills.
At the same time, Citigroup's ability to grow at home is relatively limited. Last month, Wells Fargo & Co derailed Citigroup's attempt to buy Wachovia Corp and its $418.8 billion of deposits.

Home based jobs: Tips for self employment
Working at a job where you are self employed can be a real life enhancer. But there are certain things you have to do to be successful over the long term.
The most important thing is you have to be self motivated.
You need to be the one to drive yourself. Most people are not self motivated enough to be able to work a job where they are self employed. They need to work in a set frame work with a supervisor managing them and assigning them duties. When you are self employed there usually is no one there to scold you if you are late getting started. You are often responsible for a job in its entirety. It can be a lot of responsibility. If you don't perform well you will not be employed long. There is far less lenience than in a conventional job.
One of the best ways to stay motivated is to set goals for yourself. You need to think of things that appeal to you and make you happy. For example many people are motivated by money. Money is a great tool that can give you many choices and flexibility. But for some people it might be having time off. If you love to golf or just want to spend time with your family planning a day off or several days off might be a great incentive. Whatever motivates you is what you should choose.
Once you decide what motivates you set it as your goal. Then determine what you need to do, defined by some level of job performance, to achieve your goal. For example, you may say that you want to take a four day weekend with your family and go somewhere fun. You tell yourself that if you finish your current project before deadline and secure another assignment that you have earned this reward. This way you will have something to work for.
You have to be Organized.
Because you do not have a well oiled infrastructure to work within when you are self employed it is critical to be organized. If you don't have anyone working with you that can help you then take advantage of outside services. For busy people, there are many inexpensive services to help you stay organized. Voice Mail, secretary services, full service copy centers such as Kinko's and much more. If you are a do it yourselfer, there are plenty of software programs that can help keep you organized like Microsoft Outlook for example. Programs like this will let you set your calendar and will actually come on and remind you of meetings and important events. You can also store phone numbers, email addresses, fax numbers and much more in easy to access files. Having a sophisticated digital answering machine and email can help you with ensuring you always get your messages and makes it easy for people to communicate with you. In addition, you should consider having a fax machine. You will almost certainly need a computer that is linked to the Internet with email capability.
Aside from technology there is good old fashion filing systems. You want to keep a calendar and a good filing system. Be sure to keep all your receipts if you are employed as an independent sub-contractor. When in doubt keep it, and keep it for seven years.
You have to have Self Discipline.
One of the most important keys to success in working independently is having self discipline. If you work on your own and particularly if you work at home there are plenty of distractions. You usually will not have a supervisor checking up on you and guiding you at your work space. You will have to set your own schedule and maintain it. You will have to get organized and stay organized. You will have to return your phone, fax and email messages. Part of staying disciplined is focusing on a goal. If you have something to motivate you it will help keep you on track. Part of being self disciplined means following through.
You have to be dedicated.
Finally, you have to be dedicated. Being dedicated means that you are committed to your employer to doing the best job you are capable of. That you will get the job done even when there are obstacles in your way. You don't give up easily, that you have persistence. Being dedicated and hard working is often the top quality looked for by employers. If you are dedicated you can be sure you will never be out of work. This is a critical element of success.

Finding a Legitimate Online Data Entry Job - Work at home Jobs online
There are a huge number of online data entry jobs available in the Internet. Unfortunately, not all of them are genuine and legitimate.

If you are looking for online data entry jobs, you will most likely encounter the dilemma of paying sites to get you the job you want. It is true how most sites now require you to pay some sign up fees, making it difficult to recognize a legitimate online data entry site from a fraud-filled one. Your best shot at avoiding scams is to check with the BBB or the FTC for the legitimacy of the site you want to join. You can also look through consumer protection sites and anti-fraud sites widely available in the Internet. Better yet, try to join online forums and communities and learn from others who have tried different sites themselves. It is safest to go for data entry sites which offer money back guarantees just in case the unexpected happens.
There are a good number of online data entry jobs available in the Internet. However, there are just as much people who would like to do these jobs as well. Finding a legitimate site is then only half the story, the other half will depend largely on your own effort to market yourself and to draw potential clients to hire you. Make sure you have a competitive resume and cover letter that will set you one step ahead than all other applicants. It would help if you have previous experience, but the enthusiasm and dedication you present may sometimes be worth more than any resume.
There are more and more companies which are outsourcing data entry jobs. It may take some time and a lot of research to look for a legitimate online data entry job, but the potential rewards of finally landing in one will surely be worth every effort you exert now.

Why work from home jobs are more beneficial
Hi all,
Today I am very happy that I opted for work at home jobs at the right time. Though I undertake work at home jobs like paid surveys, mystery shopping along with SEO freelancing (I work as search engine optimisation expert at a web design and Internet Marketing company). Last week few of the employees of our company were fired due to data theft and sharing companys confidential information with people outside. So in the end management took the decision's to have a bong agreement signed with all the employees of the company.
I was also asked to sign the agreement, it includes twos years time working at the comapany and one NDA (non disclosure agreement) At this part of life I am not in the condition to sign any type of bond ,,, SO i asked for some time from management and in the end I today decided but I am going to share with you all.
I have decided to not sign any type of bond agreement and take work at home jobs online as my full time source of income. even i earn a handsome from freelance work from various freelance website. I am in a hurry today coz today is my last official weekend ;) From today onwards it would be me deciding my weekdays adn weekends.
- You dont need to sign any work bond or NDA with your boss.
SO all you ppl wish me happy freelancing

Fee Work From Home Jobs - real ay to find ork at home jobs online
Isn't it unbelievable that there are still so many web pages that are able to make tons of money by charging work at home seekers money up front for no fee work from home job leads. Don't get me wrong, I understand the need to make money and why some sites charge a fee. The fact of the matter is there is a lot of effort needed to go through hundreds of job boards and web sites to find no fee work from home jobs.
Major Jobs Sites Suck!
If you haven't already figured it out, the big job sites such as Monster.com and Careerbuilder.com are not specialized in free work from home. The at home jobs listed there are usually mixed in with regular jobs and the thousands of home based business opportunities which tend to require a fee.
