Study Reveals Disconnects Between Employers and Employees
Summary
As the U.S. faces a looming talent shortage, a new study highlights that many employers are not taking the necessary measures to attract and retain employees.Disconnects Between Employers and Employees
A recent Emerging Workforce Study by Harris Interactive, commissioned by Spherion Corporation, has uncovered significant gaps between employer and employee perspectives on key workplace issues. This comprehensive study, for the first time, included employer data to provide a fuller understanding of the employment landscape.
Key Findings
- Time and Flexibility: 60% of employees consider these factors crucial for retention, yet only 35% of employers agree.- Financial Compensation: While 69% of workers see this as a key retention driver, only 49% of employers prioritize it as strongly.
Roy Krause, Spherion's President and CEO, emphasizes, "Talent will be a crucial success factor in the coming years. Our study reveals differing views on workplace issues that companies must address to optimize leadership and HR strategies."
Work/Life Balance Programs
Despite the importance of work/life balance to employees, many companies lack such programs:- 61% have no plans for job sharing.
- 56% do not support telecommuting.
- 33% are not considering flextime options.
A few organizations are setting themselves apart by recognizing these disconnects. They are emerging as desirable employers by fostering work/life balance and offering robust training programs. Studies indicate that these best practices not only attract top talent but also enhance financial performance and spur growth.
Krause applauds companies like Nationwide and Ernst and Young for their innovation, stating, "These organizations are paving the way for success in the future talent market."
By understanding and bridging these gaps, companies can strengthen their workforce and position themselves for long-term success.
