It’s time to step up your recruiting and motivation game (INFOGRAPHIC)
New research says employees expect a lot from HR when it comes to employee recruiting and motivation. And if staffers don’t get it? They’re jumping ship — even if they otherwise love their job.
The proof: More than half of employees would consider leaving a job they’re happy in if another company approached them in an innovative way.
And almost 65% of those who are happy in their job would leave if they were offered innovative benefits by another firm.
That’s according to the recently released Futurestep Innovation Imperative report.
What do researchers mean by “innovative?” Things that involve change, improvement and forward thinking.
In other words, according to researchers, if you’re not consistently finding new and exciting ways to bring in new employees and keep the best ones you have engaged, you might be well on the way to a turnover and retention problem.
