UK workers concerned by skills gaps and talent drain

50% of workers see talent gaps as a threat to their organisation and 46% believe talent gaps have come from a lack of investment in training and development.

The increasing anxiety amongst UK workers was highlighted in The Workforce View 2014/15, an annual barometer of the views and attitudes of UK workers and employers by ADP.

The researchers suggest that the shortage is due to many organisations still recovering from cutbacks made in the recession, holding them back in the race for top talent.
