The personnel giant found out: In these fields, you can do the worst

Quarter employees in the tourism and restaurant industry are not feeling well, according to human resources giant Baronan from working life research.

24 percent of respondents in the tourism and restaurant industry rate their well-being and happiness as poor, the survey shows. 62 percent were satisfied in the field, and the rest rated themselves as neutral.

CEO of Barona A glass of Määt guesses in the release that the reason for the sickness is the bad economic situation.

“The well-being of employees in the restaurant industry has been strained by the difficult economic situation, which led to, for example, an increase in bankruptcies of companies in the industry last year.”

Also employees in the property maintenance and cleaning industry and the construction industry stood out as feeling slightly worse than others. Only 66 percent rate themselves as well-off in the fields.

The happiest were the employees in the third sector (organizations, associations), the public sector and the logistics sector, in all of which about three quarters, or 75 percent, felt well-being.

The last one During the year, employees in the real estate and cleaning sector and employees in the social and health sector have changed jobs the most. Even one in five of them says that they have changed jobs in the past year.

CEO of SOL Palveluide, the cleaning company of the cleaning and real estate giant SOL Group Jussi Holopainen says that employee turnover is not particularly high for them. In his estimation, there is a normal number of people changing jobs in the cleaning company.

“Perhaps the figures show layoffs and dismissals in other sectors, from which we have received new employees. They may have then found work again in their own field,” Holopainen thinks is the biggest reason for many changing jobs.

This view is supported by the fact that the largest number of industry changers were in the real estate and cleaning industries.

Holopainen wants to look at job changers in a positive light. There are plenty of jobs available in the real estate and cleaning industry, and SOL also trains newcomers for work, he says.

“Our industry has an employment effect. It’s better that these people are working than unemployed,” Holopainen reflects.

Baronan according to the employment survey, the most important reasons for changing fields in the real estate and cleaning industry were salary and job content.

“Salaries in the industry are salaries in the industry. However, the most important reasons to stay at work are, according to research, the meaningfulness of the work, a good work community and the company,” says Holopainen.

According to Barona, however, in almost all industries, the salary is the main reason why employees considered changing jobs or industries.

Salary had the greatest influence on the change of industry in the trade sector, but it was almost as important a factor for property caretakers and cleaners as well.
