Retention of millennials could prove to be a difficult task for HR departments in 2019

Retention of millennials will continue to be a serious problem throughout 2019 as the majority of workers in this age bracket, especially women, are ready to change jobs, according to a recent research report by Engaging Works.

The report reveals that millennials are more likely to currently feel that they are not doing something worthwhile at work compared to non-millennial employees. This admission contributes to how happy this age group are at work.

Just 29 per cent of millennials are enthusiastic remainers in their current job roles. Millennials also scored the lowest when asked if they feel like they have a good relationship with their line managers.

The bottom five industries where employees feel that they are not appropriately rewarded for their work are revealed to be Transportation and Logistics, Public Sector, Construction and Building Materials, Aerospace and Defense, and Telecommunications and Publishing

The data, from over 10,000 global employees since October 2017, also reveals that men rather than women are most likely to be unhappy at work. The happiest sector at work are Fast Moving Consumer Goods, Transportation & Logistics followed by Marketing & Advertising.
