年过35更容易厌恶工作?

年过35更容易厌恶工作?

随着年龄的增长,更高的职位会带来越来越大的压力,或者他们会因为未能实现预期而产生失望和压力。

年过35岁的你厌恶自己的工作?别担心,这样的人不止你一个。

Happiness Works受人力资源公司罗致恒富委托对2,000多名英国员工进行的调查发现,超过35岁的英国员工,有六分之一在工作中并不快乐。有类似感受的35岁以下受访者,不足这一人数的一半。

员工年龄越长越不快乐,可能有许多原因。随着年龄的增长,更高的职位会带来越来越大的压力,或者他们会因为未能实现预期而产生失望和压力。虽然工资会增长,但他们要承担的责任也会增多,如育儿责任等,都会占用他们的收入和时间。

调查发现, 55岁以上的受访者,有近三分之一感觉在工作中未得到赏识,16%没有职场朋友。三分之一的35岁以上受访者认为工作充满压力,而在18-35岁的受访者中,这一比例仅有四分之一。这或许是因为年轻人进入职场的时间较短,所以他们对自己的职业和未来前景仍很自信,还没有被职场折磨地精疲力尽。

但超过35岁的职场人士并非全都是坏消息。罗致恒富之前进行的单独研究发现,进入较晚职业发展阶段的员工,感觉他们掌握了工作需要的技能,并且在工作中有更大的影响力和自由,能发挥自己的优势,这些感受能够让他们更快乐。(财富中文网)

Over 35 and hate your job? Don’t worry, you’re not the only one.

One in six British workers over the age of 35 are unhappy at work, according to a survey of more than 2,000 U.K. employees by Happiness Works on behalf of human resource firm Robert Half. That's more than double the number of respondents under 35 who felt similarly.

There are a number of possible reasons for workers' increasing unhappiness over time. As they age, they either face the growing stress of more senior positions or the disappointment and pressure of not having achieved as much as they had hoped. While salaries tend to increase, so do responsibilities such as childcare, which eats up money and time.

The survey found that nearly one-third of respondents over 55 do not feel appreciated at work, and 16% don’t have workplace friends. One-third of the survey-takers over 35 found their jobs stressful, whereas only a quarter of those in the 18-35 age bracket felt the same. With fewer years in the workforce, it is possible that young people are still optimistic about their career and job prospects and are not yet burned out.

But it’s not all bad news for the over-35 set. Separate research conducted earlier by Robert Half found that workers in laters stages of their careers feel they possess skills that are aligned with their jobs, exercise greater influence and more freedom at work, and are tapping their strengths—which can contribute to happiness.
