UK companies are going to add more jobs in the next year, despite the uncertainty about future relations with the EU after the adoption of Brexit solutions.

Four out of ten companies across the UK will increase their workforces in the coming year, showed the latest Employment Trends Survey CBI / Pertemps Network Group from the Confederation of British Industry.

The balance of companies planning to add staff and those who expect job cuts amounted to 28 percent. Thus continues the optimistic trend seen every year since 2011.

Nevertheless, the balance of respondents expecting that the UK will be a more attractive place to work for people in the next five years, turned up to -21 percent from + 16 percent in 2015.

"With a record level of employment, more people than ever before now have to work, and a strong labor market look convincing to get positive results for 2017," said Josh Hardy, Deputy Director General of the CBI.
