According to findings from Lab Manager Magazine's third annual
salary survey, employee morale has generally remained high in the
Northeast despite the state of the current economy. This is the
first year that Kelly Scientific Resources, a specialty service of
Kelly Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: KELYA) (NASDAQ: KELYB), has sponsored
the survey with Lab Manager Magazine.
Throughout the Northeast, survey respondents are overwhelmingly
optimistic about both their current positions and their future
careers, in spite of the challenging conditions of the region's
economy. Ninety-seven percent of survey respondents are pleased
with the type of work that they perform on a day-to-day basis while
80 percent of respondents feel valued by their management
teams.
The survey also revealed that Northeast respondents typically
display loyalty towards organizations. On average, employees have
worked for their current employers for four years. In the meantime,
more than 70 percent of respondents believe their current positions
are secure.
According to the survey, only 50 percent of respondents believe
that their career goals are being advanced in their current
positions while 40 percent do not. Meanwhile, a majority of
respondents (around 53 percent) feel that there are not advancement
opportunities in their current positions.
Diane Barker, science product manager with Kelly Scientific
Resources, feels the survey results are rather positive, despite
the fact that many Northeast survey respondents are not satisfied
with organizational advancement opportunities.
"The general trend of high employee morale throughout the
Northeast shows that employees are still pleased with their
positions and with the daily tasks of their careers despite the
status of the national economy," said Barker. "While Northeast
survey respondents seem satisfied with the security of their
current positions, managers should consider improving the
advancement opportunities of their organizations in order to
maintain high employee morale throughout the Northeast."
