After Quiet Quitting, the new trend, Career Cushioning is a way for anxious employees to plan for change in their career in case of a sudden layoff, owing to the turbulent economic situation. The fear of losing their jobs is leading to many employees preparing themselves for any uncertainties and cushioning their future by upskilling, updating their resumes and networking more to be up to date with the changing market trends.
Times of recession is tough for everyone, but they can be particularly difficult for those who have spent their entire life working in one company. This can make it hard to find a new job in case the current one is disrupted. There is no doubt, this is one of the most challenging times for employers as well as employees. Employers can certainly engage with employees with high degree of empathy to sail through the choppy waters.
Employee engagement plays a crucial role in keeping an organisation’s workforce energised and productive as they work together toward common goals. Leaders across the ranks have to work professionally and transparently with their teams to communicate the state of affairs of the company and the plans ahead. This builds mutual trust and calms the frayed nerves. Employees can focus on their goals better and contribute significantly to the success of the company.
