Changes in TAG Employment Patterns, August 2008-August 2010
This increase in employment the the last two years is in spite of the fact that we have lost two substantial employers (Universal and Imagi), and will be losing another by the first part of 2011 (ImageMovers Digital). However, we've gained another potentially large employer (Hasbro), and there are others (such as Bento Box) that may increase to where they go past thirty covered employees and become another listed slice of our increasingly diverse pie.
