Global Energy Talent Index Report, January 2020
The fourth annual Global Energy Talent Index (GETI), the world’s largest energy recruitment and employment trends report, shows nuclear industry professionals are concerned at a perceived lack of loyalty from their employers.
Only 35 per cent of nuclear professionals believe their organisation is loyal to employees. More respondents are dissatisfied with career progression opportunities than are satisfied, however, fewer than one-in-four professionals are concerned about a lack of regular training – a lower figure than any other energy sector. This could prove cause for concern.
However, professionals are more positive about the training opportunities on offer. Fewer than four-in-ten nuclear professionals expressed concerns about a lack of regular training and just 23 per cent say they have had no access to training in the last year – both figures the lowest of all sectors surveyed.
Janette Marx, Chief Executive Officer at Airswift, says: “The nuclear sector has a hard-earned reputation for steadiness. This is undoubtedly a solid foundation for successful talent retention. But it doesn’t guarantee that the workforce will stay put. […] Nuclear employers now need to focus on making professionals feel valued. Better communication of the career progression opportunities available is an important task, as is realigning the types of training provided with the preferred learning styles of recipients.” Click here for the full GETI 2020 report.
