According to a workforce survey by human resources solutions company Kelly Services, most of the Indian workers have a preference of meaningful jobs over income and status even during the time when the job market is dwindling on account of the global financial crisis.
Out of almost 3,500 workers surveyed in the country, around 62 per cent said that they will give up income or status to do something more meaningful. Along with this, 60 per cent of female workers and 62 per cent of male workers are concerned about career prospects and are looking for another option. Kelly Services, which surveyed almost 100,000 people in 34 countries, said employees in India derive a greater sense of pride and self-confidence in their jobs than workers in any other country.
Kelly Services Asia-Pacific senior vice-president Dhirendra Shantilal said, "A significant number of people are actually prepared to give up some of their salary and their position if they can do something that is important and meaningful to them and their organization."
