Almost 40 percent of UK employees to consider changing jobs in 2015, research suggests

Time and attendance systems that incorporate advanced employee management features are likely to come particularly in handy over the course of 2015, as almost 40 percent of workers across the UK have revealed plans to seek alternate employment if they don’t receive a pay rise, a recent news report in the local media has been able to reveal.

Almost 39% of employees who took part in a recent survey by Glassdoor revealed that they’re planning to change jobs if they don’t get a pay rise within the next 12 months. On the other hand, 35% of employees are confident about getting a pay rise and almost half of those (48%) confident of a pay rise are expecting an increase of 2% or less, which is four times the UK’s current rate of inflation (0.5%).

The Glassdoor UK Employment Confidence Survey calculates that 12 million people could potentially change jobs in 2015, which could add up to a possible recruitment bill of £360 billion for British businesses.

Glassdoor career and work expert Jon Ingham said: “With around half of employees not expecting a pay rise and a third saying they’ll be looking for new jobs if they don’t get one, it seems like many employees are prepared to move on.

“If these 12 million workers are on the lookout for better opportunities, expect this to spark a flurry of job moves, which is good for recruiters, but bad for employers’ bottom lines.”
