The Swiss put mental health above wages

In Switzerland, employees consider well-being at work to be at least as important as their professional ambitions. This is evident from a study by personnel service provider Randstad.

Specifically, 91 percent of respondents said that maintaining mental health in a current and future job is important. Salary was only mentioned second (89%), followed closely by work-life balance and job security (88% each).

More than half of respondents (58%) said they would turn down a job if it would worsen their work-life balance. Furthermore, more people in this country would leave their current job due to a reduced quality of life (50%) than due to a lack of career opportunities (29%).

Job satisfaction is generally very important in Switzerland: 57 percent of respondents indicated that they would like to continue in a position they value, even if it does not offer opportunities for professional development. Internationally, only 51 percent of survey participants agreed with this.

The Randstad Labor Barometer covers 34 markets in Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Americas. At least 500 people were interviewed per market. (rbu/sda/awp)
