According to findings from Lab Manager Magazine's third annual
salary survey, employee morale has generally remained high in the
Southeast 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 Southeast, survey respondents are generally
optimistic about both their current positions and their future
careers, in spite of the uncertain conditions of the region's
economy. Around 75 percent of survey respondents feel that their
current positions are secure while 80 percent of respondents
believe they are valued by their management teams.
The survey also revealed that although only 42 percent of
respondents believe their organizations offer ample advancement
opportunities, a majority of respondents still think that their
career goals are being advanced through their current positions
nevertheless. Despite the lack of career advancements, Southeast
respondents do tend to display loyalty towards their organizations
for more than four years on average.
In the meantime, the survey also found that respondents in the
Southeast tend to earn less money annually than respondents in
other regions of the nation. Regardless of a lower average income,
Southeast survey respondents are just as satisfied with their
positions as respondents in the Midwest, Northeast, and West,
showing that employees are seeking to add value to their work, not
through their annual salaries, but through the positive impacts
that their positions have on society.
Harvey Yau, science product manager with Kelly Scientific
Resources, believes that the positive results of the survey show
that Southeast science employees are truly passionate about their
careers and roles in society.
"In spite of a continuously challenging economy, Southeasterners
are still satisfied with their current jobs and the impacts their
positions have on society," said Yau. "Southeast science employees
seem to be committed to their current positions and
industries."
