What defines a good quality job?  Being new to business and with our sights set on growing our team, we have been looking to understand what exactly is a good quality job and what do we need to do as an employer to make sure that we are providing them. We’ve stumbled on the simplest and most comprehensive guide that is based on deep research, and have provided a link below.  The main takeaways are not industry specific.  A quality job provides at least three (3) of the following five (5) key elements: A living wage sufficient to support a decent standard of living — or, at minimum, exceeds the median wage offered within the employer’s industry. Basic benefits that increase economic security, improve health, and promote work-life balance among workers. These include paid leave, health insurance, and a retirement savings plan. Career-building opportunities that help employees develop the skills, networks, and experiences necessary to launch a career or advance along a career path. These opportunities can include training and mentorship — both formal and informal — and avenues for advancement within the company Wealth-building opportunities that enable and incentivize an employee to build the assets they need to manage financial emergencies and achieve long-term financial security for themselves and their families A fair and engaging workplace that balances the priorities and wellbeing of employees with the needs of the business. Examples include offering flexible and predictable schedules, treating all staff with respect and dignity, actively soliciting employees’ ideas to improve the business, and helping staff understand how their work contributes to the business’s success.
