Job insecurity remains despite rise in employment

by Personnel Today 29 Apr 2004
by Personnel Today 29 Apr 2004

More
than half of those scanning job boards do not feel secure in their jobs,
according to a new study.

Only
15 per cent feel very secure, with 14 per cent saying they feel that redundancy
is imminent.

The
survey of 1,849 visitors to the Monster website shows:

•
39 per cent have a job, but don’t feel very secure

•
32 per cent are out of work at the moment

•
15 per cent feel very secure

•
14 per cent feel redundancy is imminent

A
similar UK survey conducted by Monster a year ago showed that the majority of
respondents were either out of work (38 per cent) or had a job, but were
uncertain about the future (29 per cent). The percentage of those feeling
secure was the same as this year’s poll.
