Are your employees job hunting? USA TODAY reports that employee morale and loyalty are at three-year lows - but there's also growing optimism that a better job is out there. Consequently, four-in-ten employees are beginning to job hunt.

Based on data from 384 metros in all states, Ronald Leopold, VP of MetLife's U.S. adds: "Businesses are understandably focused on expenses, but they're taking their eye off the ball with human capital issues, notably what drives employee satisfaction and loyalty."

With 4 in 10 workers confident that they can soon find a better job, now is the time to show, in inexpensive ways, that your company values and appreciates its employees. One of the most efficient ways is to train your company's supervisors to help deliver that message.
