New Delhi: There is a significant change in the mindset of jobseekers when it comes to going back to their previous organisation as about 60 per cent respondents have shown willingness to rejoin their previous firm, says a survey.According to a survey by HR services provider Randstad India, workforce churn in the industry has triggered a new trend - a surge in the number of returning employees.
"From an employer's perspective, the trend of returning employees is definitely a positive one though it will intensify the competition for jobseekers even with a plethora of opportunities in the job market today," Randstad India MD and CEO Moorthy K Uppaluri said.
The top reasons cited by respondents for joining their former employers are increased salary, a familiar environment, an elevated position at work and the employer brand. Moreover, returning employees tend to have higher loyalty and it is easier for the employer to integrate them back to the organisation's workstyle, culture, systems and processes.
"Today, it has become imperative for organisations to build their employer brand. For those organisations that have not succeeded in doing so, returning employees are also ideal examples to showcase internally to those who are not sure about pursuing a career with that organisation," he said.
