One-third of the UK and US workforce to change jobs within six months, survey suggests

Around a third of UK and US employees are seriously considering changing jobs within the next 6 months, a recent survey has been able to reveal.

The poll of 2,000 US and UK employees and HR leaders suggests that sixty percent of HR leaders believe that their companies provide employees with a clear career path (advancement) while only 36 percent of employees believe this to be true.

Forty-one percent of employees said they would leave their company for better career options – with a sizable amount of those polled (31%) stating that background skills and talents were not being recognized.

When the workforce was asked if they would be willing to share more context about themselves for better career advancement in their current companies, people agreed they would like to share more. About one-third (31%) of employees polled would be happy to share their goals, background talents and what motivates them to ensure more accurate workforce placement; but the right questions are not often being asked.

The research also suggested that low importance for workforce analytics bears a strong correlation with the resulting low impact of risk assessment plans. Lack of proper employee analytic tools can be blamed for low retention especially when employees are willing to share details that would prevent them from leaving. HR leaders who have the proper tools and insight on what employees really want, can successfully combat rising employee migrations.
