The Mercer's survey - Almost 50% employees want to change their jobs now!

With improving job scenario in the country, one in every two employees, especially women, are considering to leave their jobs for better opportunities, according to a recent survey.

"About 54 percent Indian employees are seriously considering to leave their jobs for better opportunities in terms of career and base pay," the latest Mercer's 'What's Working' survey said.

Women are likely to lead this exodus with 58 per cent of the respondents saying that they are considering leaving compared to 53 per cent of men, it adds.

According to the report, around 66 per cent of employees under 24 years are seriously considering leaving their organisations even as 82 percent in this age category are satisfied with their organisations.

The Mercer's survey was conducted among more than 2,000 employees in the country, of whom 70 per cent were men and 30 per cent women employees. It was also conducted in 16 other markets globally among 28,000 employees covering IT, ITES, pharma, manufacturing, banking and insurance sectors.

"As economy improves further and new job opportunities emerge, employers risk losing valued talent and also face productivity and morale issues among workers who continue to be with the organisation," Mercer Consulting India managing director Nishchae Suri on Thursday told reporters here.

The survey finds that advancement of career is the top priority for employees followed by base pay and training opportunities.

For women, Suri says, type of work rates much higher as compared to men, who give training opportunities more importance.

However, importance of base pay is equally important for both the genders, the survey revealed.

Mercer is a leading human resource consulting, outsourcing and investment services provider.
