HR Update Survey 2013 Spring

The Spring 2013 HR update survey collected responses from 412 senior HR contacts in Ibec member companies on trends in pay and employment, people management priorities, the composition of the HR function, as well as details around HR priorities for 2013 and an update on retirement policies within companies.

Almost a quarter of the survey responses (22%) came from organisations employing over 250 employees. One in seven organisations was engaged in high tech manufacturing, and just over half (52%) were engaged in the wider services sector, reflecting the prominence of the services sector in the economy.
