As an economic downturn hurts folks across the United States, one of the most important things for workers is stability. According to a study done by the Society for Human Resource Management, most employees are prioritizing their compensation, job security and opportunity to use their skills.
This also comes at a time where 40% of employees are reporting that career advancements within their current organizations are very important to their job satisfaction. Investing in employees makes the search for leadership and management roles a lot easier according to Brandman University, citing familiarity as an important factor for businesses. The organization noted that promotions have also been found to increase employee retainment and motivation.
It is no small feat for an employee to get a steady increase in opportunities from their employers, which is why we want to hear from workers who have managed to accomplish this.
