Over two fifths of Hong Kong employees (42%) were also more likely to choose to work for an employer if they were conveniently located, above and beyond financial health (40%), interesting job content (31%), or good training (25%), according to the survey.
The Randstad Award survey covers 4,000 respondents of working age and measures the employer attractiveness of the 75 largest employers (by workforce size) in Hong Kong. The survey is unique in the market, as it allows top employers to benchmark themselves against competitors.
The survey also revealed some gender differences in what men and women seek when working for a specific company. Men often prefer companies that offer career opportunities, quality product/services, good training and strong management. While women search more job security, accessibility and pleasant working atmosphere.
The Randstad Award is the world’s largest independent employer branding research programme and is granted to each country’s employers based on the market’s largest general public opinion survey.
