If the price is right: 71% of employees willing to move abroad

That is of course if they were paid more, amidst pessimistic business outlook for next year.

This is according to the Randstad Workmonitor Report for Q4, which surveyed 405 employees in Singapore.

Randstad Regional Director, Singapore & Malaysia, Ms Karin Clarke, said, “Remaining focused on attracting and keeping top talent should remain a priority for organisations. This may mean reviewing salary and benefits in order to maintain strong and motivated talent to drive growth when the global economy recovers.”

The survey also found that 69% of employees in Singapore expect to have a higher disposable income in 2012 than in 2011, while 71% of Singaporean workers expect to work longer than their official retirement age.
