SAN FRANCISCO - Inspired by an improving job market and tired of years of productivity gains wrought on their backs, almost half of U.S. workers are ready to jump ship at the next opportunity, according to a recent poll.
Forty-seven percent of workers are currently looking for another job or plan to look within the next 12 months, according to the online poll of about 2,600 workers conducted by Web portal Yahoo.
Yahoo's HotJobs site, an employment search Web site, did not run the poll to avoid skewing the results towards those already actively seeking work.
"It's been more of an employer's market for the last couple years. A lot of employees have been feeling overextended and underappreciated," said Marc Karasu, vice president for marketing at Yahoo HotJobs.
