According to the Workmonitor Survey, released by Ma Foi Randstad, one of the country's largest HR services company, women are more likely to change jobs than men.
A study by a well-known Human Resource (HR) services company has found that Indian employees are the most ambitious in the world and the most willing when it comes to changing jobs, even if it is in a new sector.
According to the Workmonitor Survey, released by Ma Foi Randstad, one of the country's largest HR services company, women are more likely to change jobs than men. Also the 'mobility index' was higher in the group in the salary bracket of Rs5 to 10 lakh, as well as in employees in Delhi-based companies.
The Ma Foi Randstad survey takes a quarterly review of “mental mobility status” of employees ie their readiness to change jobs. The study was conducted among 23,000 employees in 25 countries including Europe, Asia Pacific and the Americas. In India, the study covered over 1,200 respondents across Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Bangalore.
The survey found that Indian employees are the most aspiring in the world (89%) followed by those in Mexico and China.
This is well above the global weighted average of 60%.
Also, employees are as confident of getting a different job in another sector (lateral career opportunities — (74%) as getting a similar job with a different employer (80%) — a reflection of employees' confidence in venturing into allied sectors and roles
As far as Indians are concerned, a significant percentage of Indian employees (85%) seem to be in control of their work-life balance as compared to the global weighted average of 75%, the survey revealed.
“Post recession, there has been a significant change in the attitude of people seeking a job change. While earlier money was the sole motivating factor, today people look at long-term career opportunities in companies that are more established, as well as factors such as career development, growth opportunities, learning potential, culture of the company etc,” said E Balaji, in charge of staffing, selection and training, Ma Foi Randstad.
“While this is a positive trend, the bad news is that the existing organisations have an HR challenge in store for them as they will have to work at retaining employees,” Balaji said.
