Economic doom and gloom has meant that more of us are considering what we would do should the worst happen and we lose our jobs, and new research from linkme.com.au reveals that 44.3 per cent of Australians would take voluntary redundancy – as long as the price was right. It seems that a six to 10-week cash payout was the favourite with 21.6 per cent of Aussies opting for that. It’s interesting to see that nearly half of those surveyed would take voluntary redundancy – as more than 40 per cent of the nation’s workforce has already experienced redundancy at least once and a massive 70 per cent revealed it was extremely stressful.
