Published Date:

Most workers are confident of staying in their present job despite the current economic climate, according to a survey out today.
A poll of 4,500 adults shows that seven out of 10 believe they will not be made redundant or could find another job.
Around half of those questioned say they are planning to move jobs this year to try to increase their pay, although one in five express concern about increased interest rates and inflation.
A survey spokesman said: "Recession is traditionally associated with decreased job security and, in previous economic downturns, many workers have been worried about losing their jobs.
"However, it seems that UK job seekers are still feeling optimistic about their future job prospects and are even looking to improve their salaries."
