Familial Workplace

True or false: Skilled and talented workers can always find jobs. Your answer may depend on whether you’re an employer or an employee. In a new Roper ASW surveyconducted for Randstat North America, 72 percent of employers held this cheery opinion, compared with 60 percent of employees. In fact, 56 percent of workers “believe the idea that there are a lot of good job opportunities out there is a myth.” That helps explain why the number of employees who say they’re always looking for a better job has fallen from 39 percent in 2000 to 30 percent now.
