For the past several years, employee satisfaction has taken a back seat to more pressing marketplace challenges. However, as the job market continues to improve, employers may be facing an alarming exodus of good talent. How significant will this migration be? The most recent Spherion Emerging Workforce® Study reveals that nearly 40% of the U.S. workforce plans to change jobs in the next year. That means many employers will face staggering turnover issues and incur the high costs associated with them.
The compelling question is, “What are we as business leaders doing to keep the skilled contributors we employ today, and how will we be able to recruit the right candidates?” Despite a historically-low unemployment rate and the beginning effects of a labor shortage, the Spherion® Emerging Workforce® Study shows that many workers say their employers are not taking the necessary steps to retain them. In addition, less than half (43%) of the U.S. workforce say they are satisfied with their current jobs.
The most recent data suggest a continued disconnect between employers and employees regarding the effectiveness of various employee retention tactics such as:
• Financial compensation
• Benefits
• Work/life balance programs
Join us as Spherion presents the findings from the Emerging Workforce® Study and explains what you can do about it!
