2008 Satisfaction & Motivation Report

"In a changing economic climate, managers must keep communication lines open and continually inform employees of changes." Male 27-31

In the largest survey of it's kind, over 10,000 Australians told us what they love and hate about their jobs in the 2008 Satisfaction & Motivation survey. For the past six years we have surveyed employees in a quest to understand their attitudes towards their jobs and what their prime job seeking motivations are.

The 2008 survey also presents a new insight into how Australians feel in light of the current economic climate. The report contains August data comparable to previous years, as well as October data which reflects attitudinal changes to economic concerns. The two data points paint a very different picture of the impact of a turbulent global economy.
