61% of them are unhappy with their jobs.

According to JobsCentral's recent survey, there is a significant positive correlation between good employer-employee work relations and worker happiness. Most Singapore workers (69%) say they are satisfied working for their bosses, with only 28 per cent of this group being unhappy with their jobs. 

However, for employees who report a lack of satisfaction in working for their bosses (31%), the majority (61%) said they are unhappy with their jobs.

Among those who are unhappy about their work relationships with their bosses, their top three areas of concern are lack of advancement (87.5%), lack of autonomy (80.6%) and work demands (71.1%).

While the same three areas are also of concern to those enjoying good work relation with their bosses, their levels of dissatisfaction is much lower.
