Bengaluru, Aug 31 (Ians) About 27 per cent employers are offering increased earnings during this festive season, according to a report on Thursday.
The report by job portal Indeed examines how industries tap into the celebratory fervour to meet workforce demands and create opportunities, adding a unique dimension to the employment outlook.
To the job seekers’ advantage, companies have geared up to provide benefits that are mostly preferred by candidates.
However, when it comes to certain perks, job seekers and employers are not entirely on the same page. Festive rewards and gifts are preferred by 16 per cent of job seekers, but only 9 per cent employers are offering these.
Similarly, performance-based appreciation is of priority for 14 per cent of job seekers, but only 8 per cent employers feel the same.
This mismatch can likely be attributed to the fact that employers are providing increased earnings and incentives which they believe compensate for additional gifts or merit-based rewards.
