1 / 3 Workers Plan to Stay in Current Jobs

A report according to Achievers, the company that focused on employee recognition and rewards, stated that 33 percent of the employees had plan to maintain their jobs this 2020 compared to the 47 percent last 2019.

Two-thirds of the surveyed employees are likely to head for the exit and the possible reason is employee disengagement. According to Natalie Baumgartner, the chief workforce scientist of Achievers, said that a large portion of the current workforce are already taking steps on towards the exit and it was a huge shift compared to what they found last year.

52 percent stated that the pay was what discouraged them the most while 43 percent thought it was career growth and the 19 percent thought it was absence of recognition. 82 percent of employees agreed they should have received more recognition in the workplace and another 30 percent of employees felt devalued by their superiors.

According the report of O.C. Tanner Institute, another reason of turnover was being burnout. The Achievers’ survey pointed out that 19 percent of the employees considered themselves as ‘very engaged’ while the 14 percent categorized themselves as ‘fully disengaged’. 32 percent believed they are ‘averagely engaged’ but are open to new opportunities, according to a survey of 1,154 individuals.

Leadership also became a key factor with 23 percent of employees thought the senior leaders are at least ‘more than average committed’ compared to the 31 percent found in 2019. Around 90 percent of workers believed they can stay if companies respond positively to their feedbacks.

In terms to the content of the feedback, 23 percent found their employers as ‘horrible’ while 44 percent found it ‘okay’.

From the 23 percent mentioned, 44 percent planned to seek for another job, compared to the 28 percent of employees who can call their companies as ‘awesome’.
