84% of Employees Plan to Look for a New Job in 2011

According to a new survey by the employment company Manpower earlier this month, 84% of North American workers plan to actively look for a new job in 2011. This is up from a 60% response in 2009.

According to Douglas J. Matthews, president and CEO of Right Management, a Manpower company, the results are "more about employee dissatisfaction and discontent than projected turnover."

Matthews believes that the results are, in part, an expression of employee distrust in the ability of their organizations to thrive in the new economic climate.
