A recent survey shows that both employed and unemployed job seekers look beyond the money, to the benefits.
“What Matters Most: Attracting Talent in the Recovering Economy” was released mid-July by Unum, a company providing financial protection benefits, and conducted by Monster.com. While unemployment still stands at 9.2%, 82% of surveyed employed and unemployed workers felt that being offered financial protection benefits showed their employers cared about their well-being, which was rated over a high base salary or a results-based bonus program.
