【留住人才】調查：逾7成打工仔認為提供專業培訓的公司極具吸引力 Survey suggests over 70% of employees find companies offering professional training extremely attractive

JobsDB委託獨立調查機構最新發表的《2023年薪酬調查報告》，向本港共3,797名本地在職人士進行網上問卷調查，結果顯示員工的工作壓力並未因為疫情過去而獲得舒緩。隨著我們步入後疫情時代，逾半數（51%）受訪者表示工作壓力依然高漲，43%的受訪者甚至感覺壓力更為增加。

報告顯示，打工仔除了關注工作環境和個人身心健康外，同時強調提升個人競爭力的重要性。超過四分之三（77%）的受訪者認為僱主提供相應的培訓極具吸引力，其中，他們希望獲得的專業技能培訓和軟技能培訓的比例分別為75%和55%。最受歡迎的技能包括「專業認證」、「數據分析」、「語言技能」、「領導能力及管理技巧」和「人際關係及溝通技巧」。

根據JobsDB香港區營運總監李政勳的觀察，僱主應專注於增強員工福利，並為員工提供平衡工作與生活的機會，以挽留人才。他說：「疫後復常的工作量增加令打工仔的工作壓力有增無減，進而影響身心健康。這可能導致員工對現職工作感到失望，加上待遇期望與現實的差距，僱主應加強員工福利，提升團隊向心力，才能留住人才。」

李政勳進一步指出，疫情加快了數碼轉型的速度，使得市場對數碼技能的需求加大。他認為僱主提供在職培訓對僱主和員工都變得更加重要。「在職培訓不僅可以提供員工更多元化的職涯機會，同時也可以幫助公司快速填補內部的職能空缺，讓員工和公司業務能夠共同發展，創造雙贏局面。」

The latest “Job Seeker Salary Report 2023”commissioned by JobsDB and published by an independent research organization conducted an online questionnaire survey among 3,797 local working people in Hong Kong. The results show that the work pressure of employees has not been alleviated despite the passing of the pandemic. As we step into the post-pandemic era, more than half (51%) of the respondents said that work pressure is still high, and 43% of the respondents even feel that the pressure has increased.

In addition to focusing on the work environment and personal physical and mental health, the report highlights the importance of enhancing personal competitiveness as emphasised by the respondents. Over three-quarters (77%) of the respondents believe that training provided by employers is highly attractive, and the proportions of professional skills training and soft skills training they hope to receive are 75% and 55%, respectively. They hope to obtain work-related skill training, including hard skills and soft skills. The most popular skills include "professional certification," "data analysis," "language skills," "leadership and management skills," and "interpersonal and communication skills."

According to Bill Lee Chern Hsing, Managing Director of JobsDB Hong Kong, employers should focus on enhancing employee welfare and providing opportunities for employees to balance work and life in order to retain talent. He stated, "The increased workload in the return to normalcy after the epidemic has increased the work pressure of employees, further affecting their physical and mental health. This might lead to disappointment in their current jobs and, coupled with the gap between salary expectations and reality, employers should enhance employee welfare and strengthen team cohesion to retain talent."

Lee further pointed out that the pandemic has accelerated the pace of digital transformation, increasing the market demand for digital skills. He believes that on-the-job training has become more important for both employers and employees. "On-the-job training not only provides employees with diversified career opportunities but also helps the company to quickly fill internal job vacancies, enabling the employees and the company's business to develop together, creating a win-win situation."
