Survey: most Czechs enjoy their work, but want higher salary

Most Czechs enjoy their work or find it fulfilling, according to a joint survey carried out by Nielsen, NMS Market Research and STEM/MARK in six European countries in May.

According to the survey, 55 percent of Czechs find their work fulfilling or enjoyable, while 48 percent remain in their job because they like the location. Some 35 percent don’t want to change jobs because it is well-paid and 25 percent because they have a good boss. A fifth said they stay in their job because it is not too demanding.

More than half of Czechs rate their workplace relationships as friendly. However, three out of ten regard their salary as insufficient and the same number of people consider employee benefits to be small or demotivating.
