（2019年6月21日，/HRoot.com/）近日，据罗致恒富的研究表明，近三分之一（30％）的新加坡商业雇主对他们公司的员工进行了降职。
对于这样的情况，受访的新加坡雇主列举了一下几个员工被降职的原因。首先，将近一半（46％）被降职的员工在新职位上未晋升成功。其次，有37％的新加坡雇主表示，降职的第二个原因是员工表现不佳。另外，不到五分之一（15％）雇主表示降职的原因是企业内部结构重组或某些职位已被取消，而2％的雇主则表示降职是员工的自愿选择。
同时，罗致恒富的研究还发现员工面对被降职时的反应也不同。超过一半（54％）的管理者表示，员工在听到被降职的消息是会尽可能优雅地处理此事。然而，仍有21％的员工因为降职而对他们的工作感到不安或失去兴趣。另外，有18％的员工表示对降职反应强烈，而7％的员工则采取积极主动的态度并专注于在新职位上取得优异的工作成绩。
罗致恒富新加坡公司总经理Matthieu Imbert-Bouchard表示：“虽然降职可能由于各种原因而发生，但对于那些因企业重组原因而被降职的员工来说，快速识别并寻求公司其他职位所需的新技能可能是有益的。另一方面，员工因绩效问题而被降职应该被视为一个警醒的信号，员工应该利用这次机会反思自身并从中获得改进和未来发展的建设性反馈。”
SINGAPORE – NEARLY ONE IN THREE BUSINESS LEADERS HAVE DEMOTED AN EMPLOYEE: ROBERT HALF
(Jun.21, 2019, /staffingindustry.com/)Almost one in three, or 30%, of Singapore business leaders have demoted an employee in their company, according to research from Robert Half.
Singapore business leaders cited several reasons for demotion. Nearly half, or 46%, have demoted an employee who was promoted but was not succeeding in the new role. The second reason for demotion, as cited by 37% of Singapore’s bosses, was poor performance. Less than one in five (15%) cite an organisational restructuring or the position having been eliminated, while 2% say the demotion was voluntary on behalf of the employee.
Meanwhile, Robert Half’s research also found that employees react differently when being demoted. More than half, or 54%, of managers say the employee handled the news as gracefully as possible, followed by 21% who got upset and lost interest in their work. A strong reaction to being demoted was cited by 18% who say the employee quit in response, while 7% took a proactive approach and focused on excelling in their new position.
“While a demotion may happen for various reasons, for those who have been demoted for restructuring reasons, it could be beneficial to quickly identify and seek new skills required for other roles in the company,” Matthieu Imbert-Bouchard, Managing Director of Robert Half Singapore, said. “Demotions for performance issues on the other hand should be seen as both a wakeup call and an opportunity to reflect and gain constructive feedback for improvement and future advancement.”
