83% of SG employees ready to say "adios!" to bosses

Singapore ranked the lowest in terms of long-term loyalty while French employees ranked first with 57 per cent.

According to Lumesse in their 'Inspiring Talent' global survey, the oldest and youngest workers were the happiest, with employees starting work and nearing retirement consistently reporting higher levels of workplace satisfaction than their stressed-out, mid-career colleagues.

Differences in pay rises, training opportunities and job satisfaction between men and women were still common, suggesting that not all employers have made good progress in equalising the workplace experience between the sexes in recent years.

The survey also revealed that Chinese staff are almost three times as likely to report large pay rises as the global average.

"...our 'Inspiring Talent' survey shows that many companies have a long way to go in getting the best from their people and in giving them careers that really inspire them," said Lumesse CEO Matthew Parker.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
