In the latest research fromFootePartners, the thing that drove this was increasing investmentby companies and individuals in gaining new training andqualifications - and therefore increases in pay.<br> I therefore congratulate Nasscom on its honesty and speed ofreaction - both admirable qualities that Western companies shouldemulate.<br> This is probably the most accurate indication asto the state of the BPO market.<br> To globalization's skeptics, however, what's good forCorporate America translates into layoffs and lower pay forworkers.
