Does the round end when one Hiring space is empty and no Workers can be moved from the Worker Queue?
The publisher's later clarification replaced an earlier reply on this point, and the rulebook agrees.

Only when that empty space cannot be refilled. One empty Hiring space is enough to trigger a refill from the Worker Queue, and the round ends only if the queue has nothing left to move. The publisher clarified that 'any space' means any one space, not all of them. An earlier publisher reply that the old wording was correct is superseded by that clarified text. The printed rulebook wording says "no Workers in any space", so read it with the publisher's clarification.
