HUMAN RESOURCE ISSUES

BY: Billy, Ashlynn, Amelia, Munib

GROWING POPULATION

The GDP of the country must grow at a faster rate

than the population of the country to increase

standard of living.

The population of the U.S. is growing steadily.

The U.S. accepts more illegal immigrants than any

other country in the world. Most of them come from

Asia and other Latin American countries.

CHANGING POPULATION

80% of Americans are Caucasian, but birthrates of

nonwhite Hispanics and African- Americans are increasing.

Because of high birthrates during 1945-1965, also known

as the “baby boom”, the population of the people over 55 in

the U.S. has increased substantially.

The “baby bust” which is the low birthrate period after the

baby boom has caused a shortage of younger workers in the

industry.

MOVING POPULATION

Many people are moving from the frost belt, which

is the colder northern half of the country, to the

sunbelt, the warmer southern half of the country.

The continuing movement of people from city to

suburbs and north to south has caused unintended

consequences.

Many businesses and cities suffer financially and

lose high quality services.

CURRENT POPULATION OF THE U.S.

316,512,429 is the current U.S. population which is

growing every second.
