"I work from home a lot but I am always available.

"Employers get a lot out of offering that level of flexibility."

Other findings from the January 2011 Employee Intentions Survey include: Nearly 68 percent of respondents are considering a change in job this year; of the 35 per cent of respondents that would go overseas, salary is the key motivation; and that after Australia, the most popular destination for overseas job-seekers was the UK.

Since the previous survey in July 2010, the popularity of Australia has increased slightly, while the UK has become less desirable as a place to work.

Despite the desire by most respondents to change jobs if the right offer comes along, almost 83 percent said they were happy with their current employer and would recommend them as a good place to work.
