According to the information of from the participating firms of the Ifo Business Survey, the personnel plans of manufacturing firms reveal a clear slowdown of employment declines in manufacturing in 2004. This development fuels hopes that the drops in employment will soon come to a standstill. However, since December the survey results have again become more pessimistic and disappoint the hopes that an end in employment reduction would occur in the first half of 2005.
