OECD Report: Majority of Romanians Considering Job Change, Citing Management and Work-Life Balance
A recent OECD report, 'Romanians@Work 2025', has shed light on the Romanian labor market. The study reveals that a significant majority of employees are considering changing jobs, with only 18% having a concrete plan for doing so. Meanwhile, 62% would leave their current position for better management, flexible schedules, or remote work, even at the same salary.
The report highlights several concerning trends. A staggering 62% of Romanian employees are contemplating a job change, yet only 12% have a clear career direction. This mismatch suggests a lack of career development planning, with 73% of companies failing to communicate clear career paths.
The report also indicates a disconnect between management and employees. While 62% of employees would leave for better management, 31% of managers never discuss employees' professional futures. This lack of communication and support is likely contributing to the high stress levels experienced by 52.8% of employees and the dissatisfaction felt by 27.2%.
Interestingly, 42% of Romanian employees would not compromise their respect and dignity for financial advantages, and 43% prioritize emotional and psychological stability over compensation. This suggests a growing emphasis on work-life balance and job satisfaction.
The 'Romanians@Work 2025' report underscores the need for companies to address career development, work-life balance, and employee satisfaction. With a majority of employees considering job changes and expressing dissatisfaction, companies must prioritize open communication, clear career paths, and supportive management to retain talent and foster a productive work environment.
