Three-out-of-four workers furloughed on the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme fear they will be made redundant when it ends.
Some 75 per cent of people surveyed by online marketplace OnBuy.com said they worried about their jobs.
More than 2,500 professionals currently on the scheme were polled to discover if they were worried about job security, along with how being furloughed has impacted them.
Results of the study also revealed that two thirds (67 per cent) of employees feel there’s been a lack of communication from their employer during this period, with a further sixth (15 per cent) stating the business they work for has already made other furloughed employees redundant.
The survey revealed that the hospitality industry is where staff feel the least amount of job security, closely followed by travel and tourism and sales roles.
Top five industries where staff feel the least amount of job security:
- Hospitality - 42%
- Travel/Tourism - 37%
- Sales - 31%
- Health and beauty - 29%
- Marketing - 28%
