    Oh dear: UK staff top job insecurity table

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/4443406.stm

    "Workers in the UK have the lowest sense of job security out of employees in 18 of the world's leading economies, a bi-annual survey has found.

    Some 24.2% of British workers think it is very probable or somewhat probable that they will lose their job over the next 12 months."




    Hmmm...lets look at those numbers again: 19.8% in the UK think it would be very difficult to find another job to the one they have, 38.4% in Belgium would find it hard, 40.9% in the Netherlands, 47.7% in France, 52.9% in Italy and 59.0% in Germany....

    It's amazing what you can do with statistics...
