Government employees less confident of finding new jobs, more likely to stay in 'socialistic environment of govt sector'

PTI | April 7, 2010

Government employees are less confident about finding new jobs compared to their peers in the private sector, but are less fearful about job losses, a new survey released on Tuesday said.

"Employees in the government sector are far less confident about finding a job compared to their peers in other sectors, as suggested by their scores of 59 and 85 per cent respectively," a survey conducted by international HR consultants Ma Foi Randstad said.

Government employees are, however, less fearful about job losses (only 13 per cent) compared to their peers in other sectors, which "emphasises the socialistic orientation in the government sector vis-a-vis other sectors," said the Ma Foi Randstad Work Monitor survey.
