Unilever Implements Global Hiring Freeze for Three Months
Unilever has implemented a global hiring freeze across all levels for at least three months, citing significant challenges stemming from the ongoing Iran conflict, according to an internal memo reported by Reuters, Richa Naidu writes. The freeze takes effect immediately and reflects rising uncertainty tied to the widening Middle East war. "Macro economic and geopolitical realities, especially in the Middle East conflict... bring some significant challenges for the coming few months," Fabian Garcia, head of Unilever's personal care business, said in the memo sent to staff.
