Temp work, permanent anxiety

Since the economic downturn started we've been checking in with sources in our Public Insight Network who are looking for work. We asked them earlier this week how things are going and learned that many remain jobless. But about an equal number have now found work. The problem is most of those jobs are temporary or contract jobs without benefits. Workers who land them still face uncertainty and continued job hunting.
