			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The title of this blog post is a fair question to ask—and this is why:</p>
<p>According to a recent poll of over 1,000 employees in North America by Right Management, the talent and career management expert within the Manpower Group, <strong><em>workers feel trapped in their jobs and are seeking employment elsewhere.</em></strong></p>
<p>Right off the bat, there are two numbers from this poll that stand out.  These numbers reflect the fact that nothing has really changed in the marketplace in regards to workers and their attitudes about their current employment situation.</p>
<p>In both the 2011 and 2010 polls conducted by Right Management, <strong>84% of employees</strong> indicated that they plan to actively look for a new job in the coming year.  In addition, the same percentage of employees in both polls <strong>(5%)</strong> said that they intend to remain in their current position.</p>
<p>What were the percentages in 2009?  In the Right Management poll conducted that year, <strong>60%</strong> of employees said they planned to actively look for a new job and <strong>13%</strong> said that intended to stay in their current position.  As you can see, despite any improvements that might be happening in the economy and/or job market, employees are not only still dissatisfied with their current situation, but they’re also becoming more dissatisfied over time.</p>
<p>Some of the reasons for this dissatisfaction include the following: </p>
<ul>
<li>They’ve been asked to help do the jobs of people who were laid off during the recession, in addition to their own workload.</li>
<li>They feel that there’s no possibility for advancement where they are.</li>
<li>They are no longer passionate or excited about working for their current employer, for whatever reason.</li>
<li>They were generally dissatisfied with how their employer handled the effects of the recession.</li>
</ul>
<p> Even a percentage of respondents who didn’t say they were definitely looking for a new job said, “Maybe, so I’m networking,” <strong>9%</strong> to be exact.  That means <strong>93% of over 1,000 employees polled are considering seeking new employment, seriously or otherwise.</strong></p>
<p>So the question remains—do YOU feel trapped in your current job?  If you do, you’re certainly not alone.  Conduct an honest assessment of where you are . . . and where you want to go.  If your current employer can’t take you there, it might be time to consider moving to greener—and more promising—pastures. </p>
<p>If you have any questions about this blog post, or about how we can help you find your next great career opportunity, <strong>please contact us.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Companies have trimmed back in a lot of areas during the past few years, but there’s one area in which no company can afford to cut—<strong>knowledge and expertise</strong>.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, many companies have suffered such losses and are struggling to recover in the face of nearly constant change and transition.  What can be done, though, if there are restrictions on full-time hires or even an outright hiring freeze?  There is a solution, and that solution is <strong>retiree re-staffing</strong>.</p>
<p>The most recent recession hit the Baby Boomer Generation rather hard, and its members were the victims of a double-edged sword.  That sword cut two ways:</p>
<ol>
<li>Baby Boomers weren’t able to rebuild their retirement savings in time, meaning they were forced to delay retirement.</li>
<li>After losing their jobs during the recession, Boomers opted for early retirement.</li>
</ol>
<p>No matter which way they were cut, both ends of the sword meant one thing for Baby Boomers: <strong>less household income.</strong>  Consequently, these Boomers are staying in the workforce longer OR they’re returning to the workforce part-time.</p>
<p>Here’s the good news: you can hire these workers on a contract basis, thereby tapping into their immense experience and vast expertise <strong><em>without having to hire anybody full-time</em></strong>.  The worker will complete whatever project you give them, and once their contract has ended, you both move on.  Or, if you would prefer them to continue working for you, simply renew or extend the contract.</p>
<p>The bottom line is this: </p>
<ul>
<li>You get what <strong>you need</strong>, which is a hard working, experienced, and talented employee that you don’t have to hire on a full-time basis.</li>
<li>They get what <strong>they need</strong>, which is additional cash flow and a flexible schedule that could involve telecommuting.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you need the kind of expertise that older workers possess and you’d like to engage in retiree re-staffing, we can help.  We offer contract staffing as part of our recruiting services and can find qualified candidates willing to work on a contract basis.</p>
<p>Retiree re-staffing can give you what you need.  Contact us today for more information about how it can benefit your organization!</p>
