Abstract | A survey of the employment and demand for scientists and engineers in industrial research laboratories was made among all companies belonging to the Industrial Research Institute and a number of other organizations early in 1972. A questionnaire was used to analyze such aspects as reliability of future estimates, employment trends, personnel movement patterns for 1971, degree of success in personnel movements, availability and qualification of applicants, employee transfer, executive development, fringe benefits, and conditions of employment. Data analyses of 86 replies showed the evidence of personnel movements into areas of rapid payoff. Personnel reductions were not large, and, by 1973, most industry groups expected to expand again. A shift of emphasis back toward longer-range research activities and a stable working situation in laboratories were marked. Continuing liberalization of benefits was anticipated for the future, but at a gradual pace. Project leadership ability was needed, and managerial skill was likely to be found among experienced personnel. Besides 32 statistical tables, a sample questionnaire and instructions for entering data are included. (CC) |
